How do I inform Microsoft of this? First check to see if they're already on your transcript. https://mcp.microsoft.com/mcp/tools/trans.aspx If not, contact your Regional Service Center for assistance. -- Lawrence Garvin, M.S., MCITP:EA, MCDBA Principal/CTO, Onsite Technology Solutions, Houston, Texas Microsoft MVP - Software Distribution (2005-2009) My Blog: http://onsitechsolutions.spaces.live.com Microsoft WSUS Website: http://www.microsoft.com/wsus My MVP Profile: http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/profile/Lawrence.Garvin

How do I inform Microsoft of this? From the CompTIA Website: How do I submit my credentials towards MCSA to Microsoft? Microsoft accepts the combination of CompTIA A+ with either CompTIA Network+ or CompTIA Server+ as an elective for the Microsoft Certified System Administrator (MCSA) certification program. In addition, Microsoft accepts CompTIA Security+ as an elective for both the MCSA and the Microsoft Certified System Engineer (MCSE) certifications, and as a specialization option for the MCSA: Security and MCSE: Security certifications. 1. Take at least one Microsoft MCSA on Microsoft Windows Server 2003 exam or Windows 2000 exam to obtain your MCP identification number (MCP ID). You must have your MCP ID number to apply your CompTIA credentials towards MCSA certification. Your MCP ID number is provided to you by e-mail after you take a Microsoft exam, regardless of whether you passed or failed the exam. You can also contact a Microsoft Regional Education Service Center for assistance. 2. In order to submit your CompTIA certifications to Microsoft you will need to do the following: Log into your CompTIA record at www.comptia.org/careerid. If you are a first time user, you will need to create a user name and password before you can access the database and you will need to have your score report available. If you do not have a copy of your score report, please contact the test delivery provider that you used to take your exam. They will either mail you a copy of your score report or e-mail the information to you. The test vendors telephone numbers are the following: VUE: 1-877-551-7587 and Prometric: 1-800-776-4276. 3. Once you have logged into your record you will need to click on publish credentials and send your A+ and Network+ or Server+ for MCSA or Security+ for MCSE to: MCPHelp(a)microsoft.com. You will need to provide your MCP ID# in the text field of the validation form. You MUST use this publish credentials feature to validate your certifications to Microsoft. DO NOT send them an e-mail directly. Only by using this validation process will they accept your certification information. If you have any questions please contact Microsoft at 1-800-636-7544.
From: Paulo on 26 Oct 2009 05:18 Thanks for your help. I do have a CompTIA Career ID but could not find a "publish credentials" anywhere. THe closest I could find was the Transcript feature that allows you to send the transcript by email, so I added the MCP ID to the Private notes and sent it to the email you provided. Hope that's what it takes. Shouldn't this be clear from the website, either the CompTIA or MCP website?
