The benefits of a Microsoft Business Certified workforce.

While experience is always important, using a limited set of skills over and over does not necessarily equate to mastery of a software product. Research shows that a comprehensive level of skill proficiency is directly linked to an immediate increase in on-the-job performance, regardless of the actual job function.*Microsoft Business Certification enables job training and placement programs to fill job vacancies quickly. Staffing agencies and employers will minimize new-hire ramp-up time, retain the most productive employees, as well as validate and maximize their return on resources and technology. And this new program verifies a wide variety of skills—not only in products like Microsoft Office Word and Excel. Employers know that when they hire a Microsoft Business Certified candidate, they’re getting a Microsoft Office expert.
