Why MOS Certification Matters - and
Why BowTieLearning Helps You Pass First Time

Have you ever wondered whether Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS) certification is really worth it?

You’re very sure that you know how to use Excel, Word, and PowerPoint - so why bother with Certification……?

A really good reason is that despite being convinced they can use applications like Excel, Word and PowerPoint, most employers find that very few people can actually use Microsoft Office Applications correctly and efficiently and this is one of their main criteria when interviewing job candidates.

Get Certified and Put Yourself Ahead of the Pack in Job Interviews

Let me share a statistic that will probably surprise you and most other Microsoft office users…

📊 Less Than 0.2% of Microsoft Office users are MOS Certified

Unbelievably, more than one Billion people use Microsoft Office worldwide, yet only hold an official Microsoft Office Specialist Certification. Yes, that is less than 0.2% of Microsoft Office Users.

This small percentage is exactly what makes MOS certification so unique. When you achieve it, you immediately stand out - especially to prospective employers who need people who can genuinely work at a professional level in Excel, Word, Access or PowerPoint.

Our Video explains why MOS certification is so important - and more importantly we’ll show you how we can help you to pass your exam on the first attempt.

💼 Why MOS Certification Matters for Your Career

The most important aspect of having MOS Certification, is that it proves that you can:

✔ Solve real workplace problems.

✔ Work more efficiently and make fewer mistakes.

✔ Use Excel, Word, and PowerPoint the way employers need.

✔ Be effective in any organizational role.

Plus you get a certificate and badge to add to your profile.

If you’re starting out with little work experience or applying for a promotion, MOS certification provides instant credibility to current and prospective employers.
