My personal rule of thumb is that I don't want to work for an employer
who requires company sponsored awards as a measure of competence. My
current workplace will not consider applicants with MCP's / MCSE et al
for any role, including roles administering MS systems. There are other
employers out there with similar attitudes.

So you're in a bit of quandry there, do you want the jobs an MS award
will get you or the jobs your degree will get you? If you're answer is
"I just want a job" then you've some serious thinking to do.
