Woo hoo! Today I got four exam vouchers under IAAP's special deal with certiport ($189 for three vouchers which includes testing prep software plus $69 for a single voucher).  I have to use them up within 90 days, so that sets the deadline for me to take these tests.

I plan to take:

Access 2010
Sharepoint 2010
OneNote 2010
Project 2010 (except it's not showing on the list, so maybe Office 365 instead)

So that's the first step towards finishing these exams, some of which I will be taking for the first time (in any version) ever.

New stuff to learn! I love it!
