Microsoft
Certified IT Professional: Database
Administrator (MCITP: Database
Administrator) is the premier
certification for database server
administrators. This certification
demonstrates that you can keep up with
your enterprise business solutions 24
hours a day, 7 days a week.
Database
administrators install or configure
Microsoft SQL Server and manage or
maintain databases or multidimensional
databases, user accounts, database
availability, recovery, and reporting.
They also design or implement security
or server automation and monitor and
troubleshoot SQL Server activity.
Database administrators are typically
employed by mid-size to large
organizations.
Microsoft Skills Assessments for
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 help database
administrators focus their exam
preparation training and find learning
resources.
How to Earn Your
MCITP:
Database Administrator
MCITP
candidates must first complete the
requirements for the MCTS: SQL Server
2005 certification (one exam). After
earning this certification, candidates
earn their MCITP: Database Administrator
by passing two required exams.
If you
are a Microsoft Certified Database
Administrator (MCDBA), you may upgrade
to the MCITP: Database Administrator
certification by taking one upgrade exam
in place of the two required exams.
MCDBAs must still obtain the MCTS: SQL
Server 2005 certification as a
prerequisite.
