adExcellence Certification

Tag: MSN adCenter, adExcellenceNathan Malone @ 5:00 am

Yesterday, I finally got around to taking the adExcellence exam, which Microsoft released recently for their adCenter program. I have been eying this exam for a few months, and have just not had enough time to take it until last night.

As I expected, it wasn’t all that difficult, and I had no problem easily passing. They gave me an hour to answer 100 questions, and I only had to have a final score of 80% in order to pass, so it should be fairly easy for anyone remotely familiar with PPC management who takes a little time to go through their training materials to pass.

Everyone who passes the program gets to use the “Microsoft adExcellence Member” logo (I currently have it in the right column of this blog). In addition, they get a listing in the Members Directory (with the option to opt out of it, if desired).

Overall, I’m pleased with my use of that hour. I have another certification under my belt, got a listing in the members directory, and hopefully picked up a little knowledge along the way.

For those interested in taking the adCenter training, or in getting certified, you can find out more info on their program at adExcellence.com.
