Microsoft se prebacuje na Prometric kao jedini testing provajder. VUE ostaje bez licence posle 01.09.2007.
Najgore od svega je sto na MCP sajtu stoji vec mesecima jedna poruka koja kaze:
----
Please note that it can take up to two weeks for Microsoft to receive and process your exam records. If it has been more than two weeks since you took your exam and the results are still not appearing on your transcript, or if you notice any other problems, please contact the Regional Service Center nearest you. We are currently experiencing delays receiving MCP exam results from Prometric, and we are working together to resolve these issues
