Certification
All examinations are developed and reviewed by a team of experts who have extensive experience using Microsoft Office applications in diverse business and educational settings. The examinations are performance based, which means each is conducted within a live or simulated Microsoft Office program. Examination candidates are asked to perform a series of tasks within a project to clearly demonstrate their skills. A typical examination takes 50 minutes and examinees are measured on both knowledge and efficiency. Certification is available immediately online after the exam, upon passing. Certification exams are taken in an AIT computer laboratory under invigilation conditions and cannot be taken at home.
