The MCSA requirement was not revealed to me until a day or two AFTER my first day. The contract's actual cert callout was for MCDBA for SQL Server 2008, which is no longer available. It is therefore technically impossible for me to fulfill the requirements of the contract. They're in the process of amending the contract to add the words "or equivalent", but there is some discussion still going on as to exactly who determines what the "equivalent" is, and when the determination is made. The nearest "equivalent" is MCSA for SQL Server 2012, which *I heard* the government is going to skip altogether. At that point a cert for thwhatever next version of SQL server they move to will be required, and I'll probably have to get that cert as well. I plan on staging a bloody coup at that point because I absoilutely refuse to suffer through another round of MS Cert testing.
