After my long study for the Microsoft Office Word Exam, I have passed all 3 of them. The Office Specialist and the 2 part Expert Series.
1st time I took the MOS Word exam this was tricky.
Unlike Microsoft Certified Professional exams which I take a lot of times, this Microsoft Office Specialist is a whole different level.
Instead of questions, you have a document and a project and you have to do set of tasks to complete. I rather not divulge on the name of the project as that will violate the NDA (Non-Disclosure agreement).
When I started the Expert stages the exams was very hard. It was hard because the tools I never used during my career. So I did further training to study the tools after few attempts I have finally passed Part 1 & 2 on the Expert level.
Since I become the Word 2013 Expert I have learned so much and deeper about Microsoft Word than I ever did and also the Expert Certificate gives me the ability to utilise most of the tools on Microsoft Word.
I am now adapted to the Microsoft Office Specialist Exam format.
