I am a Microsoft Certified Trainer, and I passed the MCSD Web development, where I learned cool stuff about html5 (mostly incompatible stuff with IE 10 ) and azure.
What I can say is that : the technology is interesting.
Taking a course with a trainer might be boring or cool, depending on your trainer. If the trainer follows Microsoft guidelines for training, it will be boring. (yep Microsoft training material is not really good pedagogically speaking)
Nevertheless, I enjoyed Learning MCSD Web dev, I did not regret it. (I'm a trainer, but always learn certifications by myself)

I might look into MSCD you've described it well and seems more worth it, thank you!

You do know that you have to get recertified for MCSE every 3 years, which is why I never bothered.

i wouldn't worry about any certificates, it won't make you a better programmer. I worked with lots of consultants that had all that stuff and i am still cleaning up aftrer them. I have read most of the manuals for the testing and really, about a quarter of it is really helpful in the real world, all the rest you will probably never use or is depricated by now. If you think it will help you think about software development better, then go ahead, education is never a minus. I would rather have someone who has confidence in thinking up solutions and learning whatever it takes to accomplish the job instead of some inexperienced person with lot's of titles asking "what should i do about it?"
Be the one who says "hey, let me have a crack at that!"

Yeah, there was another link posted here and that understandably created quite an outrage.

Sponsored by Peta?
Or maybe Monsanto and the Soy Institute?
Salt + meat + smoke cannot have any believable impact.

It could've been sponsored by God Himself, for all I care. I won't stop eating bacon.

Best be getting a girlfriend that likes the taste of bacon then.

I'm sure that won't stop folk from eating bacon. It may even give more reason to brag about eating bacon. No really, dear, I won't get you pregnant; I eat lots of bacon.
Just because the code works, it doesn't mean that it is good code.

Hm, that might actually be a great idea as a contraception method. All the good things, without the bad ones!

It's not like the usual crap they sell could be called chocolate!

Real chocolate >= 70% cocoa. Hershey's is all partially hydrogenated corn syrup and stuff.
