    Have you logged on to the MS MCP website?

    http://www.microsoft.com/learning/mcp/mcpmembersite.mspx

    Then on the left side you will see "View My" and choose "Transcript" where you will see all your exams taken.

    Check out the "Certification Planner" under "View My" so can get a feel for it.

    Finally under "Program Benefits" \ "Welcome Kits and Certificates" ask MS to send you out you certification + MCP card.

    You should be all set then :)

    Congrats on your MCDST btw!

    Thanks. To register I presume I need a MCP ID which I do not have.

    On another note, I have been also looking at 70-621 which is for Upgrading your MCDST Certification to MCITP Enterprise Support. It seems to just be the Vista version of XP's 271. Would i be right in saying this? Is it worthwhile upgrading to MCITP

    Did you not use an MCP ID when you registered for your exams?

    Check your exam records.

    Yes I think its always worth staying up to date with your exams especially once your in "exam mode" because its hard to start back up studying again once you leave it for a while.

    With MS new wave of Certs getting more and more press these days, people are going to notice the "MCITP" alot more, which is what you want really..

    You should go for it!

    the only id I got from microsoft is a test/candidate ID which is 1 character longer than a MCP ID (it seems) I have sent an email to MCPhelp@microsoft .com

    When you completed your first exam you would have been sent 2 emails, one with a confirmation number and password to assign your Passport to your MCP ID. That would have allowed you to access the MCP site. Check the email you recieved a confirmation email for your first exam.

    Ok, when you signed up for your exam, you recieved an email to tell you that your exam time was at and you were given an MCP ID at this time. When you passed your exam you would have recieved 2 emails, 1 with instructions on how to assign your live passport whatever address to your MCP ID and a confirmation code in the second (this could have went into your junk email or whatever!)
