What C# certificate should I apply for, in 2021?
Azure Certifications and Roadmap
Whats the recent feeling on certs -- valuable or not so much? Long ago I did Oracle DBA cert & Java dev, they qualified a baseline but a pretty low baseline. Almost all the gurus didn't have certifications, while all the folks trying to break into the area did.

Hi @Scott, Darryl ,
All remaining exams associated with Microsoft Certified Solutions Associate (MCSA), Microsoft Certified Solutions Developer (MCSD), Microsoft Certified Solutions Expert (MCSE) have retired on January 31, 2021.
Microsoft’s focus on role-based training and certifications can help you develop necessary skills and experience to advance in an accelerated and increasingly competitive cloud-based world. Role-based training and certifications are kept current with new features and services that Microsoft is constantly adding to the cloud solution areas, minimizing skill gaps associated with the applicable job roles.

Hi,
Microsoft is focused on role-based certifications, so there will not be Windows Server 2019 certifications. Windows Server 2019 content will be included in role-based certifications on an as-needed basis for certain job roles (e.g. Azure Apps & Infrastructure and Data & AI solution areas).
