Thank you for the info Andrew!
Below is a list of freely available videos to help with this exam. Most of them are on the Microsoft Techcenter or Microsoft Edge.
This exam is mainly aimed at Microsoft Partners who will need this as a requirement to deliver Desktop Deployment Planning Services(DDPS). The exam is also great for those who want to show their expertise in MDT 2010 and Windows 7 deployment.
