Certiport has worked with Microsoft since 1997 as the only official provider of the MOS certification program, the world's most recognized credential chosen by individuals seeking to validate their skills on Microsoft Office. Joining Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint, Microsoft Access, Microsoft Outlook, and Microsoft SharePoint, Microsoft OneNote is now a seventh exam option for individuals working to earn the MOS credential.

"More than 3.5 million people worldwide have taken one or more Microsoft Office Specialist exams, and OneNote is now an integral part of this popular program," said Lutz Ziob, General Manager, Microsoft Learning. "By earning the new OneNote certification, students learn to be more efficient when managing their school projects and assignments, and preparing themselves for optimal productivity in a future job or internship environment. OneNote certification is also an ideal choice for professionals since it can increase their productivity and build their skill level."

Individuals who certify on OneNote will possess the proven skills necessary to take full advantage of OneNote product functionality, and the Microsoft Office 2010 suite as a whole. OneNote 2010 is a digital notebook that provides a single place to gather notes and information, with the added benefits of powerful search capabilities and easy-to-use shared notebooks. OneNote can increase productivity by reducing time spent searching for information across e-mail messages, paper notebooks, file folders and printouts.
