Last year I have finished my MCPD certification on “Windows Developer 4”. This year I want to achieve MCPD on “Windows Azure Developer”. To get the certification I only need to pass one exam: 70-583 Designing and Developing Windows Azure Applications<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"My<\/a>\"MCPD<\/a>I was looking on internet for self-training resources which could help me and created a list. If you know any other good material for preparation, please add it to comments.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. On exam page you will find links to preparation resources. Official self-paced training “Learning Plan for Designing and Developing Windows Azure Applications<\/a>” is little bit outdated. Information provided is from years 2010-1011. BUT, this is an old exam, so you don’t need to know latest & greatest from Azure. Strangely, link is not working if I am singed in with Microsft live<\/span>.<\/li>\n
  2. On this site you will find some more links which helped other people to prepare for the exam : http:\/\/consultingblogs.emc.com\/iralustman\/archive\/2011\/12\/20\/70-583-amp-ndash-windows-azure-exam.aspx<\/li>\n
  3. One more guy sharing his preparation material: “Top Five resources to help you prepare for 70 583 Designing and Developing Windows Azure Applications<\/a>“.<\/li>\n
  4. Useful discussions in MSDN forum “Looking for Exam 70-583 material<\/a>“.<\/li>\n
  5. Probably too new for the exam, but very extensive material: “Learn Windows Azure with these free Microsoft Virtual Academy courses online<\/a>“.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Of course, exam is not everything what you need to know to become a good Azure developer. I also recommend to follow latest news on Azure on Channel9<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
