Microsoft announced the new Microsoft Certified Master (MCM) program at TechEd the other day as well as via a press release.

Under the MCM umbrella we have the MCM: Exchange 2007 program, which really is a more mature version of the old Exchange Ranger program, which I personally had the pleasure of going through and pass last year. However, I still need to take the so called review board in order to become a Microsoft Certified Architect: Messaging.

If you didn’t see the MCM lunch session at TechEd, here is an interview with the MCM/MCA program director Per Farny directly from the Fishbowl

Trika will also have a live meeting with Per Farny and Vicki Teachout ultimo July 2008:

• July 30, 2008, at 7:30 A.M. Pacific Time — (What time is this in my region?)
• July 30, 2008, at 5:00 P.M. Pacific Time — (What time is this in my region?)

Enjoy!
