{How to} become MCT Microsoft Certified Trainer on Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement step by step instructions
Hello Everyone,


Today i am going to share guidelines on becoming Microsoft Certified Trainer on Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement or Power Platform.





Let's get's started.








Step 1: Earn a Qualifying Certification.


To qualify as an MCT, you must first hold at least one Microsoft Certification related to Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement. The most relevant certifications are:


1. Microsoft Certified  Dynamics 365 Customer Experience Analyst Associate(Exam MB-280)

  • Focus on configuring and customizing Dynamics 365 Sales and Customer Service.
  • Ideal if you aim to teach Customer Engagement topics.

2. Microsoft Certified: Power Platform Functional Consultant Associate(Exam PL-200)

  • Covers Power Apps, Power Automate, and Dataverse, which are essential for Customer Engagement.

3. Microsoft Certified: Power Platform Developer Associate (Exam PL-400) (for technical trainers).

  • Required if you want to train on Power Platform customization and development.



Action: If you don't have these certificcations yet, start with PL-200 or MB-280,  as they are highly relevant.







Step 2: Gain Training Skills



Microsoft requires you to demonstrate training experience. You need one of the following:



  • A train- the -trainer qualification (like CompTIA CTT+,  Train-the-trainer course, or a degree in education).
  • At least one year of instructional experience in IT, software, or Microsoft-related courses.



Action: If you lack formal training experience, consider getting CompTIA CTT+ or enrolling in a "Train-the-trainer" course.







Step 3: Apply for the MCT Program


Once you have a qualifying certification and training experience, you can apply for MCT through the official Microsoft site:





  • Pay the annual MCT fee (varies by country, usually $1000 or less).
  • Submit proof of training experience.
  • Pass Microsoft's Verification process.





Step 4: Start Training as an MCT


Once approved. 
  • You will be listed in Microsoft's MCT directory.
  • Gain exclusive access to Microsoft training materials (Microsoft Learn for Trainers)
  • Eligible to teach Microsoft Official Cirriculum (MOC)
  • Opportunity to become a Microsoft Certified Trainer Regional Lead.




Recommended Path to MCT for Dynamics 365 CE.



1. Earn PL-200 (Functional Consultant) or MB-280 (Customer Experience Analyst Associate)
2. Get Instructor/Trainer certification (CompTIA CTT+ or Similar).
3. Apply for MCT and pay the fee.
4. Start delivering Microsoft courses officially.




That's it for today.
