FAQ
-
Are exam accommodations available?
Yes. Request an accommodation through Microsoft’s official process before scheduling, and allow time for review and approval before selecting an appointment.
-
Does Microsoft provide a detailed score report?
The score report identifies performance by measured skill area. It is diagnostic information, not a percentage conversion or disclosure of individual exam items.
-
Can an employer verify my credential without accessing my account?
Yes. Share the official Microsoft Learn credential link or transcript controls rather than giving another person access to your profile.
-
Why might the exam objectives change while I am preparing?
Microsoft updates study guides as products and job roles change. Compare the skills measured and change log with your planned exam date.
-
What happens if my identification is rejected at check-in?
The provider may deny admission. Confirm accepted identification, legal-name matching, expiration dates, and local requirements before the appointment.
