Microsoft certified professional question?

Hi Guys,

Its just a question really is it ok for people to say they are Microsoft professionals and Microsoft certified if they are not?

Its just something i see pop up alot on gumtree/Facebook

Do they have to provide proof its just something i wanted to know really.

Many thanks

The UK doesn't seem to have as many protected titles as other countries so likely nothing can be done about it.

I have a MCP certificate.

Not sure if it's ok or not but you get a certificate etc from Microsoft you could always ask to see it.

To be honest I am in the building industry now so you can see how much that certificate helped lol... Useless

Yeah its a funny one really i mean i know comps inside out and i know my way around windows does that make me certified lol?

But in all seriousness i wouldn't do what i know someone does and they do upgrades of windows with this one guy but he doesnt use legit software.I dont mind helping out mates and what not but i wouldn't charge to do what he does.As its highly illegal he charges £25 for people who want windows 8.1 upgrade and i know for a fact what he does.As i had a mate use him and he uses the KMSpico software to make it genuine.
