Just a quick discussion to see whether you are intending to study and sit for one of the Microsoft SharePoint 2013 exams ?
If so, when and how are you intending to learn ?
Furthermore, the idea that there is no upgrade might be further proved by this change from the part of Microsoft.
Before:
Q.I have an MCPD on Visual Studio 2010. How can I upgrade to an MCSD certification?
A.
If you have achieved an MCPD: Windows Developer 4 certification, MCPD: Web Developer 4 certification, or MCPD: SharePoint Developer 2010 certification, you will be able to earn an MCSD certification on the corresponding solution by passing two exams.
Now:
Q.I’m pursuing an MCPD on Visual Studio 2010 certification. Should I finish it, or should I wait for the new certifications?
A.
Achieving an MCPD on Visual Studio 2010 certification enables you to take advantage of a shorter path to upgrade your certification to the new MCSD certifications. Additionally, you can demonstrate your skills on both versions of the product.
The question changed a bit, however they don’t promise “two exams” anymore!
