What it means to be an MCA?
The Microsoft Certified Architect Program (MCA) recognises top industry experts in IT architecture. They can employ multiple technologies to solve business problems, provide business metrics and measurements to describe the success or failure of projects. The program is currently in beta and is expected to open to the architect community in early 2006.
