In today’s competitive job market, Microsoft Office Specialist Certification (MOS) is more important than ever, providing globally-recognised, industry-endorsed, evidence of skills mastery in the range of Microsoft Office applications, including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, and Outlook.

According to a recent survey commissioned by Microsoft, new starters with MOS qualifications reach full productivity sooner and have more opportunities for advancement than those without the qualification. On average, certified employees earn 15% more than those without certification and are nearly 20% more productive.

Once you are certified, you can share your achievements in a way that’s trusted and verifiable with your digital Microsoft badge. The Microsoft digital badge translates your credential into a digital image associated with metadata uniquely connected to you. This standard allows you to easily share your digital badge online in a way that can be verified by employers and others who are interested in your skills.
