Microsoft Certification Exams to Retire at the End of March

In its monthly MCP newsletter, Microsoft provides yet another reminder about the exams to retire at the end of March. Note that if you're still persuing your MCSE 2003, you still have time to complete it -- as long as you've done your 2000 -> 2003 upgrade exam by month's end. Other than these two exams, 70-292 and 70-296, all those that are retiring at the end of this month relate to Windows NT and 2000.
