Five year old British Schoolboy,becomes World's Youngest Microsoft IT Specialist

Ayan Qureshi,  a five year old who just barely started going to primary school, successfully completed the assessment to become the youngest Microsoft Certified Professional in the world.

Invigilators for the exam were so shocked when the whizz boy PC programmer turned up, they initially told him he COULDN'T sit the exam. The test is usually taken just before or after university by young adults aiming to become information technology technician, express UK reported

Proved them wrong,  Ayan aced the tough 'Supporting Windows 8.1' exam at Birmingham City University in September with ease, finishing with time to spare. 

The brainbox boy was first introduced to computers at the age of three by his dad Asim, aged 43.

Asim, Ayan's father said: "We are just so proud of him. 

"He has plans to take an advanced test in the future but he has to concentrate on school for now.

"He was very interested in computers from the age of three so I started explaining to him about hardware and software and installing programmes.

"I showed him how to install Windows and then decided to enter him for this exam.
"It wasn't easy teaching him every day but he picked it all up in the end."

The computer-based test is designed to test applicants' knowledge of hardware, software, and a general understanding of how the Windows operating system works.

The certificate, which young Ayan proudly displays in his bedroom, proves his technical ability.
