My question would be how do any of the TechRepublic members view MOUS certification. Is it worthwhile to attain any MOUS certification? The reason I ask is right now I am tutoring people in Microsoft Word and thought that MOUS certification would provide a way to market to Adult Community Education Departments to teach users how to use Microsoft Word. Any opinions about this subject would be terrific.

I have dealt with the MOUS and am currently taking assorted certs towards the MOUS Expert Cert. I am finding that there isn't much education to the IT fields as to the content or importance of these certifications. These certs don't get the the recognition that other Microsoft curriculums get, such as the MCSE. Since this is more for an end-user environment, it does however help to reduce the support calls for these applications. Hopefully over the coming year there will be more promotions of the benefit of training.
