IT professionals were presented with new and updated
certifications this week. CompTIA announced the release date for
(December 17-21) the updated version of Networking+. Microsoft

entitled 'Managing a Windows 2000 Network Environment'. The exam
will be available as a core module for the MCSA track and an
elective for the MCSE Windows 2000 track.

Nivo International, the exclusive administrators of MOUS, have
