iPRO Course Structure
The course structure is shown opposite, the OCR units alternating with the Microsoft MCP Professional units.

Each OCR unit has an assessment which must be completed before progression to the next unit, assessments for the OCR units are a combination of evidence gathering and competence assessment.

MCP units have are associated with a Microsoft computer based examination. The examinations for MCP units can be taken at any time during the course.

The 2261/2 Microsoft Desktop Support Technician course is optional and not strictly required for iPRO, However, delegates will need to take this course and pass the associated exams to gain the MCDST Certification and achieve the Microsoft Certified Systems Administrator (MCSA) without studying additional MCP units. No additional costs are incurred for delegates electing to take this optional unit.
