Exam Format Options
For each certification, candidates have three flexible exam format options:
- Complete one module-specific exam for each course module in a certification track. Recommended for those who want to progress gradually through a track and who would like to be assessed after each course module before proceeding to the next.
- Complete a single combined exam for the entire certification track. Recommended for those who want to only take a single exam that encompasses all course modules within a track.
- Complete a partial exam for a certification track. Recommended for those who have already obtained a certification and would like to achieve another certification without having to be retested on Modules 1 and 2 (because Modules 1 and 2 are common to all tracks). Partial exams only encompass the courses specific to a certification track. For example, for the Cloud Architect certification, the partial exam only encompasses topics from Modules 4, 5 and 6.
Exam Delivery Options
For each certification, candidates can take advantage of the following available exam delivery options:
- Take exams or exam retakes via Exclusive Networks Global Services.
