No- Computing Degrees have a different issue.
People with computing degrees frequently graduate with four years programming experience in unused languages.

For example, my school graduated a lot of pascal experts. Their logic was that the important thing was the theoretical side of programming.

IMHO that was b.s.

And yes I am saying that you have to look at the resume for windows admins, not the certification. And you need to test them with real world situations- not one of the 200 questions they memorized the answer to- unless you are an expert yourself and can talk to them and get a feel for if they are a paper expert or a real one.
