- Julian_SharpAug 02, 2022Learn Expertjose_2208 As eliekarkafy said the requirements to become an MCT can be found at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/certifications/mct-certification
Essentially, there are two separate requirements
1. Hold a current associate or expert level certification from the list here https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/certifications/mct-certification#current-eligible-microsoft-certifications-and-qualifications-for-the-mct-program
2, Have proof of instructional skills from one of the organizations listed here https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/certifications/mct-certification#requirements-to-become-mct. Note the use of a personal reference was removed on July 1st so you can't ask the training center to vouch for your training skills any more- jose_2208Sep 03, 2022Copper ContributorMorning Julian, get this response from Microsoft "Thank you for submitting your Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT) application. The instructional skills certificate you provided could not be validated; therefore, your MCT application has not been approved."
"You can upload another instructional skills certificate here. You can also choose to validate your training experience through a professional reference. Please submit the reference’s contact information here"
"In order for your application to be approved, we must receive both your MCT Program fee and validation of your training skills in the form of a training skills certificate or a professional reference."
I completed "Microsoft Core Training Skills Course" for my instructional skills. Also, I have received a certification of achievement from the master trainer. I can provide a pdf of my Microsoft core training skills course if needed, it was declined.
my other question is I have been told that the fee is no longer required it could be waived but I can't see how to pay, or waive it, still I'm being told that you have to receive the fee.
I will appreciate your help- Julian_SharpSep 03, 2022Learn ExpertFirst thing, the fee. The email you received mentioning the fee is wrong. The fee is currently waived so when you apply the fee will be zero and you do not have to pay.
