What is the Microsoft Certified Educator Exam?
The Microsoft Certified Educator (MCE) exam is a valid and reliable assessment of the competencies required to apply technology skills in the context of teaching and learning.
For education administrators, MCE represents a way to evaluate educator readiness and can help measure the effectiveness of professional development engagements.
How will it Benefit Educators?
Educators holding an MCE certification have the competencies needed to apply technology skills to the teaching and learning process, creating a richer learning experience for students, and saving precious time. A certification that aligns to global educator standards can be a helpful differentiator, whether you are looking for your first teaching position, interested in taking on a leadership role in your school or discussing your qualifications with parents.
What will the test cover?
The exam does not assess your ability to use specific tools but addresses global educator learning objectives that measure the ways ICT integration can be used to improve outcomes in six core content areas that align to the UNESCO ICT Competency Framework for Educators, including Education Policy, ICT/ Technology Tools, Curriculum and Assessment, Pedagogy, Professional Development and Organization, and Administration.
What will the exam look like?
- Each delivery of the exam will contain approximately 50 items. It will contain both case study and multiple-choice items.
- The case study exam format uses scenarios that simulate how educators might use ICT resources as they prepare for and conduct their classes.
