What is the exam format?
Office Specialist certification exams are not written exams.
Instead, the exams are performance-based, which means each is
conducted within a "live" Microsoft Office program.
Using the actual program, exam candidates are asked to perform a
series of tasks to clearly demonstrate their skills. For
example, a Microsoft Word exam might ask a user to balance
newspaper column lengths or keep text together in columns.
