Prometric Exams

Prometric is a public company and anyone can take their exams. You can visit the Prometric web site for more information. To earn the exam discounts associated with the EdCert program, you must have attended at least one EdCert course and passed a related Transcender practice exam on two occasions to earn a free voucher or a substantial discount on an associated Prometric exam.

Prometric offers hundreds of different certification exams. Visit the Prometric web site for more information. IT Training offers a discount program for Prometric’s Microsoft and CompTIA exams.

With Microsoft’s certification program, you must pass all exams listed in a single track to obtain the professional designation. As an example, if you are working towards your Windows 7 Enterprise Desktop Support Administrator credential, you must pass both the 70-680 and 70-685 exams. You can take the exams in any order, but you must have passed both to earn the MCITP: Windows 7 Enterprise Desktop Support Administrator.

Some of the most popular Microsoft certifications and the exams you need to pass to earn them are listed below:

Certification Title	Needed Exams (listed by exam number)
PRO: Windows 7, Enterprise Desktop Administrator	70-680, 70-686
PRO: Windows 7, Enterprise Desktop Support Administrator	70-680, 70-685
PRO: Windows Server 2008, Server Administrator	70-640, 70-642, 70-646
PRO: Database Administrator 2008	70-432, 70-450

The CompTIA certification program offers a broad range of additional exams. Check out the full list of certification exams on the CompTIA web site.

You earn certification by passing every exam listed for that certification title. See preceding question.

EdCert course attendees can sign up for 30 days of free access to a Transcender practice exam for free. These exams cover the same topics in the same question style as are on the real exams, so they are an ideal preparation tool. In addition, users who pass their Transcender practice exam on two separate occasions and submit proof of such can receive a Prometric exam voucher for free or for a substantial discount, greatly lowering the cost of taking the Prometric exam. See details on our Transcender practice exam page.

Additional Prometric exam preparation resources can be found in our Prometric Exam Prep group. Available resources include recorded presentations that help you prepare for specific exams and information about the Skillsoft self-study resources that cover many of the topics covered in the Prometric exams.

EdCert course participants who have passed two instances of the same Transcender practice exam for a Microsoft certification will receive a voucher enabling them to take the Prometric exam at no charge. If you are preparing to take a CompTIA certification, passing the Transcender preparatory exam two times will enable you to purchase a Prometric CompTIA exam voucher at a heavily discounted price. See the CompTIA exam price list for more information.

You can take an exam at any Prometric Testing Center. Be sure to bring your exam voucher with you.
