Other information

Microsoft Office Specialist Program is the only official Microsoft-recognized certification program for Microsoft Office globally.

https://certiport.pearsonvue.com/Certifications/Microsoft/MOS/Certify/Outlook

Microsoft Office Specialist Program certification exams use a performance-based format testing a candidate’s knowledge, skills and abilities using the Microsoft Office 365 and Office 2016 / 2019 programs:

  • Microsoft Office Specialist Program exam task instructions generally do not include the command name. For example, function names are avoided, and are replaced with descriptors. This means candidates must understand the purpose and common usage of the program functionality in order to successfully complete the tasks in each of the projects.

The Microsoft Office Specialist Program exam format incorporates multiple projects as in the previous version, while using enhanced tools, functions, and features from the latest programs.
