Hi and I'm not RuDe, Sorry if u feel that way, Im here asking Help. and People dont Read the Post Properly. I mean Putting All in CAPS dont mean U r Talking Rude. I'm Just Makiing a Point to Properly READ ALL the POST Before Posting. And Where Does it SAY PUTTING IN CAPS MAKES THE POST RUDE
By the way, no-one I've spoken to in IT here in Oz takes any notice of ACS membership etc or mandates it for a job once you are here - its unfortunate you have to go through the hoop to get in.

Try starting again with a new username and a better attitude. Oh and get the stupid caps key on your keyboard fixed.

Re: MCSE Qualified and Needs Help for ACS
I have 7 years of work experience and became MCSE Security on Windows 2003 on November 2006. I don't know whether I can apply under group B. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Re: MCSE Qualified and Needs Help for ACS
If you want to apply with the University degree, your professional experience is after your degree. I was working since 1997 and I'm a recently MCSE 2003: Security. I don't know whether they accept my work experience and I also don't know whether I have to send them some project reports. I'm still not sure to choose 2231-11 or 2231-79.
Thanks for your help.

Re: MCSE Qualified and Needs Help for ACS
Thank you for your Reply. I was very Worried about what will happen. People in FORUM try to discourage me espcially in this forum like did u copy ur O/L or things like that. I really Appereciate Your Advice and am Following your reply.
Thanks a Milllion in Advance .

This is what I did . I have MCSE in NT4 with 10+ yrs experience and got a possitive ACS result 5 months ago. Make sure you get and send the temp login details to the MCP site so the ACS can view all your passed Microsoft exams online (see the MCP site on how to do this) as well as certified photocopies of your exam certs etc.
You do not need to do the RPL as an MCSE. This may change in the future , but for now you do not.
As for getting a copy of the app that someone else has completed, If you can't fill in the form yourself then i'm suprised you manged to pass your MCSE's :-)
There is nothing hard on the app so do not worry.
Make sure you read everything on how to apply for the ACS on the website, take your time and get everything together. Check .. double check .. then cross fingers

Re: MCSE Qualified and Needs Help for ACS
I've been in IT for 9 years now but have not done my MCSE or any MCP's yet as I have never needed them. However, we are looking at moving to Brisbane so would I be better of going and getting some MCP's and doing the ACS route, or forgetting the MSCE/MCP's and instead do the RPL route instead?
Hope that makes sense

Re: MCSE Qualified and Needs Help for ACS
Hi AndyR,
I was in a similar position to yourself when i applied to the ACS (RPL) i did not have an MCSE but had CCNA. My thinking was i'd get the RPL out of the way first, get approval and then I sat the MCSE exams as it's a long wait for the VISA process and at least it keeps your mind of the waiting.
Cheers

Re: MCSE Qualified and Needs Help for ACS
But to me it sounds as if only the MCSE (or other certification) should suffice without other formal education (undergraduate).
Good luck

Re: MCSE Qualified and Needs Help for ACS
I passed every exam I could think of that was relevant to my experience. I figured a certificate is easier than proving knowledge through experience.
I had MCSE:2003 Security, CISSP,CCSP,CCNA,CWNA and CWSP along with a couple of little ones.
I also used an agent and was told to submit an RPL along with project reports.
I'm not sure now if I was advised incorrectly but as I got in with an MODL ASCO Code I'm happy anyway.
I'd be surprised if MCSE was enough.
Good luck to all who try, whatever route.
