MCT Renewal Issues
Hi Team, My MCT renewal has been rejected stating that i do not have 'qualified credentials in your active certifications'. When i view my transcript my 'Cloud Solution Expert: Cloud Platform and Infrastructure' certificate is active. I am unable to understand - why this certificate is not being considered and how is it not a relevant "Expert" certificate for the Cloud Solution Architect Role? Anyone who faced a similar rejection or anyone from the Microsoft MCT team who can guide properly on this? Unfortunately - all i am getting is a cooked response from the 'mctprog' email. All they are saying is that i am not eligible and no one has been able to explain why this active certification is not valid/considered/dropped? Regards.
Renew Az-305
My AZ-305 certification recently expired because I missed the renewal window. I did not receive any renewal notification emails before the expiration, which is why I was unable to complete the renewal assessment in time. I would like to kindly request whether any additional time or an exception could be granted in my case. If this is not possible, I completely understand, but I would appreciate it if you could review my situation and advise on any available options.Seeking Guidance & Partners for Promoting Microsoft TSP Training

We are located in EU and find it quite unacceptable that we need to agree that this company will store private data from an eID on US servers as it says so explicitly before you can book and exam. They say they comply to EU (aka GPDR) regulation, they even have a EU office (but strangely no phone nor email address for that branch on their website.... what?), so sadly a nogo for our company since data needs to reside in EU.MCT Email in MTM
📣 Important Update for MCT Renewals – Effective October 2026 Beginning with MCT renewals in October 2026, all trainers will be required to have taught 6 sessions (or 6 days) during the previous enrollment cycle. ✔️ Please refer to the attached PDF for the official definition of what qualifies as a session or day of delivery. This activity will be tracked in MTM (Metrics That Matter) using the MCT email address that the trainer is registered with in the MCT Program. 🔔 Important Notice for Learning Partners & TSP Community If your MCTs deliver classes under a learning partner email address, they will not receive credit for those deliveries in MTM. To ensure accurate tracking and compliance: ➡️ MCTs MUST use their official MCT email address when logging deliveries in MTM. ➡️ Learning partners, please ensure your trainers are aware of this requirement and are using the correct email when delivering and reporting classes. Maintaining accurate delivery records is essential for renewal, program integrity, and ensuring we continue to uphold the high standards of the MCT community. Thank you for your cooperation! Any questions please email mailto:mctprog@microsoft.com
