FREE Microsoft exam retakes with the ever-popular Second Shot certification exam offer!

imageHere is some very exciting news for all of you out there looking to ramp up your certifications or those looking to earn their first Microsoft certification. As of yesterday, the very popular Second Shot offer is now back in market and applies to all IT professional and developer certification exams (all exams with a 070 prefix), as well as all academic exams (exams with a 072 prefix)!

What is Second Shot? In a nutshell, Second Shot gives you peace of mind as you take on Microsoft certification exams by giving you one free retake for each exam you don’t pass the first time. That’s right, a FREE retake! Of course, you always pass all of your certification exams the first time, right? Winking smile

How does Second Shot work?

  1. Register to receive a Second Shot voucher for either a single exam or a certification pack (certification packs not only offer you the Second Shot, but also save you at least 15% off the single exam prices too).

  2. Using the Second Shot voucher number, schedule and pay to take your initial exam through our testing provider, Prometric, at https://www.register.prometric.com.

  3. Take your exam.

  4. If you do not pass your exam the first time, you may register to take the same exam again at no charge, via https://www.register.prometric.com. Provide them with the same Second Shot exam voucher number when registering the second time.

    • NOTE: Please wait one day after failing the exam to register for the retake, to allow for test results to be entered into the system.

How long is Second Shot available?

  • Second Shot voucher offer is available from August 27, 2012 to May 31, 2013.
  • Exam voucher expires on May 31, 2013 for single exams (with 070 and 071 prefixes), June 30, 2013 for academic exams (exams with a 072 prefix), and December 31, 2013 for certification packs
