MicrosoftMCT New and Renewing MCTs - Update May 29
Updated May 29
🚨 MCT Renewal Tool Launching Soon! 🚨
The MCT Renewal tool will be released very soon. To ensure a smooth renewal process, please make sure you meet the following requirements:
✅ You have an active certification
✅ You have taught at least one class since your last renewal
If you don’t meet both criteria, you will not be able to renew.
🗓️ Important: All MCTs who were active prior to May 2024 have been automatically extended until August 1, 2025.
🆕 New MCT Enrollments: We are still accepting new enrollments manually. If you’re looking to become a new MCT, please work with an ISCP to get manually onboarded.
📢 Stay Informed: Monitor the MCT Lounge Program Announcements for updates on when the renewal tool is live.

Hello Sarah, good afternoon. I have been an MCT for over 10 years. My renewal is due on June 11th and it has not changed automatically. When I asked for support on the forum, they said there was nothing they could do.
Are you looking under Microsoft Certified Trainer history or are you seeing this date under Certifications?
PS Use the MCT Lounge - this is a forum for TSPs!
Under my history it’s there, but not under my current

This post is for TSPs not MCTs, for MCT information go to the MCT Lounge - the latest information is on MCT Enrollment Tool NOT Available yet | Microsoft Community Hub
Thanks for keeping us updated on this konger
I am following this thread and checking for any updates here on the lounge.Hi Sarah,
I hope you're well. My MCT is due to expire next week, and I’d like to renew it. Could you please let me know the steps involved?
Also, do I need to contact the ISCPs for this process? If so, how can I get in touch with them, and how do I find out which ISCPs are available in the country I live in?Thanks in advance for your help
Best regards,
S- Your MCT is not expiring next week
- Renewal is not available at the moment
- Why do you think you need to contact an Instructional Skills Provider?
This is not a forum for MCTs, it is for Partners so the information here is for partners. Go to the MCT Lounge and read up the multiple discussions about renewals off the home page
The MCT enrollment tool doesn't appear to be available, and I came across a post in this section from Sarah, the MCT Program Manager.
Frankly, the process has been quite confusing and poorly managed - renewing an MCT shouldn’t be this difficult. My certification is expiring next week, and I still can’t find clear instructions on how to proceed.
Sarah’s post mentions contacting ISCPs - can someone confirm if that’s the correct step? And if so, how do we find the right ISCPs based on our location?
Julian_Sharp, if you happen to know the full process, would you mind sharing a detailed guide?
Thanks in advance.
Huge thanks to Sarah for this useful and important update 👍
Hi
Is the tool now up and running?
- konger
no
28 April.... - any update?
Did you attend either of the MCT Program Update meetings last week where this was discussed?
Unfortunately, I couldn't participate. I'm just trying to conduct trainings, not "fight" with the portal. There might be an offline session of this meeting available, I have time at night.
