Hi,

i have the mcdba certification and want to go to mcitp.

Can anybody confirm how many exams i need to do? Is it just 70-447?

Thanks

yes its just the 70-447.

Have a look at

under the upgrade path from MCDBA

Hi,

that's what i thought but i just called microsoft and they tell me I need 70-431 first and then 70-447 to qualify

Apologies I misread.

To go from MCDBA to MCTS on SQL Server you need 70-431.

Then to go from MCDBA with MCTS on Sql Server to MCITP Database Administrator you need 70-447.

Shouldnt be a problem to someone who already is a MCDBA.

Good luck

thanks, I has the same issue as you: it's not very clear on the MS site.
