    Microsoft Training

    Has anyone one here considered starting a Microsoft training centre ? Apart from being a MCT what other requirements are there ? How do you purchase training materials ?

    I couldn't imagine you ever having a hair out of place!

    No experience, but I would imagine it is a similar concept to being a franchisee.

    i.e. You have to buy your training material from MS at the price they set.

      I was looking at becoming a Microsoft Certified Partner yesterday...mainly to get the logo for my web page.

      Then I found out it is a grand a year. Mind you, they give you VS 2005 free of charge.

        I am considering becoming a Learning Center , but it is just an idea at this time. I don't have classrooms etc. As for the requirements you need at least 2 mcses I guess , plus the fee .

            £199 a year for all that? Not bad!!

            I might have a slice...

            Cheers Dmini!

              That's nice I might have a bit of that as well.
