MVPs are folks who love technology,
just like you.
- At
some point in their career, Microsoft recognized

others, as well as for learning Microsoft
technology. So Microsoft has awarded them
their Most Valuable Professional recognition.

page will give you a chance to get to know
your MVPs better. Below are several resources
related to MVPs specializing in many Microsoft

Microsoft's Explanation of MVPs
- Microsoft's Most Valuable Professional (MVP) program recognizes Microsoft customers who voluntarily assist other customers in peer-to-peer online support groups, such as the Microsoft Newsgroups. MVPs come from a wide range of backgrounds and professions, yet they all share one key attribute: a willingness to give time, expertise, and advice to enhance other users' technical skills.
