50% off exam voucher 3

[Loekje]

Hi,

I got my CCA with the free voucher a few months ago, as mentioned in this forum by Citrixengineer.

Now I haven't seen yet the announcement of the 50% off voucher you can get through:

http://www.citrixcertification.com/certified.html

As I do all exams through self study to keep the costs down, these offerings sound like music to my wallet :^)
So if you are planning to take exams...

BTW. IMHO almost all product certifications stink in that you don't really learn something about the product in the real world, but rather how the producer want's you to see the product. Citrix certifications are not different.
But I cannot neglect the (paycheck) valuation of being certified.

Thanks Loek!

Got my 50% off certificate. Now I guess I have to study for the test. Any must-have books for studying?

Well, I waited until 12/31 to take my CCA test (the day the certificate expired), passed with a 87%. Woo-hoo! How much harder do the tests get to get a CCEA? *J*

 

[CitrixEngineer]

Not much harder - the only thing I had to really do any extra work for was NFuse and CSG. Everything else just builds on what you've already covered.

CSG is easy if you've read the O'Reilly book on Building Internet Firewalls CitrixEngineer@yahoo.co.uk

Thanks CE, I am going to be implementing CSG very soon. I track down that book.

Where can I do just the Exams in the UK?

I work on the Helpdesk that supports the Citrix Environment. Our NT Team handles all things that go on within the environment. I know that it would benefit me to get better educated on it if not for anything, but for me. What books or courses can I take to get certified in this area? We also have tuition re-imbursment, so maybe I can catergorize that into the mix as well. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

"Where can I do just the Exams in the UK?"

Most centers that do Sylvan Prometric testing will provide Citrix tests. I usually go to either Azlan or Global Knowledge - but there are others. All these companies have websites that you can locate through a search engine.

(courses and exam details)

http://www.metaframebook.com

(free online book - covers pretty much everything an admin needs to know). Also there are some good "Exam Cram" books and sites, which are covered in earlier postings.

...and, of course, right here on Tek-Tips is where you'll find information and help with specific questions on the actual exams!

Hope this helps
