The new Microsoft Certified Desktop Support Technician certification provides the most effective approach to gain the skills of successfully troubleshooting desktop environments running on the Microsoft Windows XP operating system. It is an entry-level certification presented by Microsoft for the client and desktop professional.
[p>
A research by the U.S. Department of Labor, shows that Computer support specialists held about 500,000 jobs in the year 2002, but at present there is still a shortage of skilled individuals to do this job. According to this research this is a fastest growing occupation through 2012. MCDST certification provides an excellent opportunity for those candidates who are interested in the job of support technicians because it validates that the individuals have the skills to support end users and to successfully troubleshoot desktop environments running on the Microsoft Windows XP operating system.
