The
Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT) Program offers resources and benefits that help
instructors prepare for and deliver top notch technical training. As part of
your IT Academy benefits, you may enroll one of your technically
qualified educators free
of charge into the MCT Program and additional qualified educators may join at a
25% discount.
Your
educators who are already members in the MCT Program are invited to renew their
MCT membership any time between March 1 and April 30, 2014; however, we
encourage all MCTs to renew quickly to ensure uninterrupted access to their MCT
resources and benefits.
Please discuss MCT renewal with your educators and make sure those
who joined the MCT Program during a previous enrollment period plan for a swift
MCT renewal.

Program must possess a current qualifying Microsoft Certification or qualification eligible
for the MCT Program.

- NOTE: If you have
concerns with your MCTs ability to meet the renewal requirements based on
organizational rules or operations, please reach out to your Microsoft Regional
Service Center.

pay the fee when they renew.
Why join the MCT Program?
Joining the MCT Program will make your educators
part of a thriving worldwide community; a community of educators that share
resources and best practices. The MCT community is made up of trainers who
actively deliver training and support other MCTs as they train students around
the world. The MCT Program
offers a wide range of benefits and resources including a tailored MCT Software
& Services subscription based on the type of training you deliver,
discounts on certification exams, one free copy of every digital Microsoft
Official Courseware (MOC), hundreds of hours of recorded readiness
presentations, and much more.
Please discuss MCT renewal with your MCTs and
make sure they plan for a smooth renewal.
