Registration for exam 71-669 TS: Windows Server® 2008 R2, Desktop Virtualization will open next Monday, March 1st.

For this beta, we’re going to try something slightly different in order to avoid having the registration open when Prometric's offices are closed. We’re going to wait to send out the notifications containing the beta code until 9 am Eastern Standard Time on registration day.

What time is this in my region?

Instead of midnight EST, you should be ready to register at 9 am Eastern Standard Time on March 1st. If your SME profile indicates that you have work experience with virtualization, you’ll receive a notification containing the beta code at the e-mail address indicated in your Microsoft Connect profile (i.e., if you received this e-mail, you should receive the beta code notification at the same address).

Note that as always, beta seats are limited. Far more notifications will be sent than there are seats available. Please review the skills measured in the prep guide before you register to ensure that this exam is a good fit for you: http://www.microsoft.com/learning/en/us/exam.aspx?ID=70-669#tab2
