Exam Crams – Recorded Sessions

May 7, 2012

Veronica Sopher has added a tip for some some excellent content on the 60Days2MCSE study group page in the MCSE Private Cloud forum.

The post is about the Microsoft Certified Career Conference (MCCC) which they have held for three years now. In the post Veronica specifies how you can get access to the recordings and it is a lot of useful stuff. 

So if you are going for the MCSE or just want to prepare for another exam/exams this is a great source of preparation material.

Register and take advantage of the resources, you know I do!
