Editor's Note
=============
Microsoft have issued new guidelines for those MCSEs wanting to
upgrade to the Windows 2000 track. This is in order to fulfil
requirements for the MCT 2002 program. IT professionals greeted
the announcement with mixed emotions. Microsoft also announced
the release of the new 'Highly Available Web Solutions' exam for
the MCSE 2000 track, due to be released at the end of this month.
Announcements will be made on December 11 regarding the winners
of the National Training Awards (NTA). The NTA are widely
recognised as the UK's premier award for both businesses and
individuals that have attained lasting excellence and success
through training. IT Training pages will keep you posted on the
results.
We are interested in hearing about your challenges as trainers
and how you overcome them. What are your greatest obstacles?
