Microsoft Certified Educator Exam voucher or discount query

Hello There,

I am in the process of applying for Microsoft Certified Educator Certification exam booking. The link is taking me to Certiport where I created an account.

I think as an employee at Microsoft, I can sit for this exam for free. Is that correct? If so, how do I book this exam for free? Or where can I get an exam voucher to get 100% discount.

Please advise me.

Thank you so much.

Lakshmi.

Hi,

Just off topic but wouldn't it be better to get Microsoft Certified Trainer that Microsoft employees have special courses for instead of certified educator?

Microsoft Certified Educator is mostly aimed at teachers using modern technology to teach their students effectively.

Hi,

Thank you for your reply. I would very much like to do MCT. In fact, I researched about it. However, there are 2 pre requisites. One, I need to complete a certification course taking one from the given list( I currently have MS 365 Fundamentals). But, this certification is not enough. I need to choose one from the list. I find the courses given in the list are not relevant to me. So, I could not proceed. Can you advise me on this?

Second requirement is to prove Instructional skills by doing another course from the given list. I am not sure how to get to those courses and complete them.

On this topic, can you please advise me how do I do Essential Educate trainer course? I want to do this course straightaway as a stand-alone course.

Therefore, I have decided to go ahead with Microsoft Certified Educator as there are no pre requisites for this course.

Can I get 100 % exam discount from Certiport?

Please get back to me on my above queries.

Thank you,

Lakshmi

Hi,

I don't work for Microsoft so can't really navigate the internal processes, but Microsoft Agents here should be able to help with that.

As for the technical certification, because you already have M365 fundamentals, maybe look into MS-700. It is one of the simpler Microsoft certifications since everyone uses MS Teams and the content isn't as difficult as other exams. It is by no means an easy exam but should be achievable.

I understand the hassle this situation poses to you. Let me provide the appropriate support that can further guide you in scheduling your Microsoft Certified Educator exam with a discount.

You can send them an email by using the contact details provided via the private message I have initiated.
