If you folks would like to try to do something about this, I suggest we form a team to look into it. If someone steps up to lead the team, we can arrange a meeting via skype with IAVIT's lawyer to see if we have any recourse.

As others have said, the only way you will get through it is with a reader who can confidently read technical questions in a timely manner. I did the MCITP Enterprise and server 2008 R2 certs (6 exams), and only got anywhere with a training company in the UK called Firebrand. All other attempts to get certs have gone wrong. I tried to do the upgrade exam to 2012 R2 last year and had a similar failure due to not getting a competent reader.
Thanks. Andrew.

Hello to all on this list. My name is Kelly Prescott and I am currently enrolled for a degree in Information Technology-Network Administration. I am not new to this area, but up to now, my experience is with Unix/Linux systems which I have little to no problem with in terms of accessability. I managed the Network Operations Center for a ISP for about 10 years, so I am relatively experienced. My weak points are stuff involving Windows as that was not my area. This program is All Windows All the time! I am trying to do the Microsoft certifications and my forst cert attempt was a total non-success. Certiport who provided the test said it was accessible with JAWS, and it was not. So my first question is Is there anyone on here who has gone through the certification process with Microsoft, and if so, how did you manage accessability? My testing center knows less than I do about the process, and when I called certiport customer service, They told me to send a email.
I did that, but I am looking for input/ideas from others so I don't have to "blaze" a new trail from scratch.
