The Highlights

Here's what I catched from the presentation.

1. Microsoft is accelerating the momentum related to the new role-based certifications by:
1. The enrichment of its Microsoft Learn online training platform, which will be open to its Partners, who will be able to offer, among other things, training content.
2. The organization of training events of different sizes such as the "Microsoft Ignite Tour".
3. The enrichment of the offer of classroom training rlated to the new solutions.
4. The introduction of new certifications and new role-based certifications levels (in addition to the MCSA and MCSE, the Fundamental level appeared a few months ago and a new level "Specialty" is under development)
2. The new "MCT Store" is operational and is accessible from the following url: https://mctmerchandise.com/.
   For now, it allows to claim the MCT and Anniversaries kits but the MSL team plans to add other products.
