BVPS Retirement
Note: The BVPS MCP exam has NOT been retired and may continue to be used toward the Gold SAM Competency requirements within MPN


Software Assurance Planning Services is evolving to better support deployment and migration planning, whether for on-premises, cloud, or hybrid environments. With this focus on deployment and migration, BVPS was retired on August 14, 2011.

All BVPS engagements must have been completed and redeemed as of August 14th, 2011 for payment to be received.
