Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS) certification, the premier Microsoft desktop computing productivity certification, is a globally recognised standard that validates desktop computer skills. The MOS program is meeting the demand for job-ready people in the global workplace. A recent study revealed that employers are experiencing many benefits by hiring certified employees. Certification offers a positive impact on both an employee's individual capability and his or her ability to work within a team. For example, a third of supervisors believe that MOS-certified employees are more competent and more productive than other employees are. Moreover, MOS-certified employees require less supervision and are able to accept additional responsibilities more often than non certified employees. Another research study shows the significant effects of MOS-certified employees on the job

Up to 87 percent of employers notice increased competency in certified employees.
Up to 83 percent of employers feel that their employees who are certified are more productive.
Up to 82 percent of employers believe certification directly benefits an organisation.
