    Heya,

    I have contacted several exam centres to do microsoft exams, however all of them require that you have done a course at the location first. Since I have already done the course many years ago, I have no wish to spend the money doing it again.
    The location where I did the original course do not run exams (so unfortunately this is not an option)

    Does anyone know of any that will do exams only?

    Preferably Limerick area, but I am willing to travel.

    Is this for an MCP type exam? You don't need to take a course for them.

    If you look at this site you'll find a list of testing centres in Ireland.

    The FAS Centre in Raheen do exams, but only on Wednesdays to the Public I believe.

    Yes, its MCP's. You dont need to take a course, but the testing centres refuse to test you unless you have done a course at their centre.
    Its bollocks.

    You should have no interaction with the Test Centres before you sit your test. Everything should be organised through Prometric.

    Thanks guys, I didnt try directly through Prometric. I should have read the answers a little more closely (good practice for the exam).
