MCSD or MCAD? Which is better?
I work at a large financial consulting firm, and many of my peers are licensed attorneys, CPAs, EAs (an IRS thing), etc. But my particular job involves Microsoft solution development. There's a large internal push going on to make sure that all client serving personnel are certified, but there is some flexibility in selecting a certification.
Which of these two options do you think has a longer lifetime? Are there additional options I should be considering?
Java wouldn't be useful here. There's a CPA here who for some odd reason obtained that, and he concurred. Though I am sure you enjoy having that wherever you work.

I would say MCSD is the better certification. This one focuses on enterprise wide solution development vs departmental solutions. However, look at the requirements for both exams. If you use the MCSD elective exams wisely you may be able to get both certs with only 1 or 2 more exmas.
