Microsoft is widely used by businesses large or small.

Microsoft offers numerous certifications that IT professionals can earn to show mastery of software, server and networking skills specific to Microsoft products. While not all employers require certifications to obtain an IT position, there are many reasons to consider Microsoft certification training as part of your move to an IT career.

1. Employers will give you a second look.

While certifications may not be necessary, having them can show dedication to study and mastery of skills with Microsoft products and can put you on a different level than those that aren’t certified.

2. You could earn more.

Employers recognize the time and expense of preparing for and passing a certification exam. Even more, they recognize the value of the skills tested by the exams and, in many cases, reward it with higher salaries or bonuses.

3. The cost is worthwhile.

Besides earning more and having more job opportunities, the cost of training for the exam will pay for itself in cutting your study time so you can pass the exam faster and score better. As in so many instances, time is money. More efficient exam preparation will enable you to take less time off from your current job or give you time to study other areas of IT, or spend time with your family rather than trying to study on your own.

Those with Microsoft certifications are more likely to be put into team leadership and supervisory roles, and studies have also shown that the more certified individuals on a team, the better it performs. If you want to be well-regarded and enhance your reputation and your team, certification is the way to go.

5. You will have access to a community of peers.

Microsoft certification lets you access exclusive resources and benefits as well as networking opportunities that will enhance your professional growth. Also, you will have the opportunity to give Microsoft input on ways it can improve its certification process.

6. Microsoft is a widely used tool for businesses.

Microsoft has software that thousands of businesses of all sizes use to run servers and networks. Having expertise in Microsoft utilities gives you the skills needed for many different types of IT jobs, like network administrator, network engineer, systems engineer, computer support specialist, and Windows migration specialist.

7. Your skills will transfer easily to other software and certifications.

The information you learn may be specific to Microsoft utilities, but you will also learn a lot about how servers work and how to administer networks that will transfer to other operations if you need to work outside Microsoft’s systems.
