It's for HTML5, JavaScript and CSS. Here's a link to a BLOG describing it with the free voucher code: http://weblogs.asp.net/sreejukg/archive/2013/01/03/get-certified-for-free-microsoft-offers-free-certification-exam-70-480.aspx[^]

Thanks! at first I thought it might've been a scam, but went to the blog and seemed legit, I already scheduled my appointment for the exam, now to find resources and study for it! This page[^] provides a rough guildeline of what skills the exam measures

I looked at the material and I think they are using it to push Windows 8 development. Not that there's anything wrong with that. :|

I gave this Exam and scored 920 of 1000. I can say its hardly 10% CSS and 20% HTML 5 tags etc. Most of it was JavaScript.
