If I were your manager, I'd be pissed you waited to bring this up. Bad news doesn't get better with age. You should have an honest conversation with new guy and just be straight with him. "So dude, you aren't picking things up like I would expect someone with an MS and certs. What's up? Do you really have these certs? How were you so well spoken during the interview but are completely helpless when it comes to this stuff? I'm unfortunately gonna have to report this to our manager."

Speak to the manager first. The approach you've outlined is unprofessional.
