eCPPT

currently studying for eCPPT. Have been about a month or so.. I seem to have pretty good grasp of the material and the labs are awesome. I feel given another month or two and I should be ready to take the exam.

For the eCPPT certified folks:

How long did you prep for the exam? At what point did you know you were ready?

I have a CS background and do testing at my job. Testing for BO's is somewhat part of the gig.

Check out computerphile, awesome intro into BO that compliments eLearn's BO material.

It varies..I had to stop studying for it due to life/work circumstances but will go back to it very soon!

I know people who finished it in 3 months and some who took 6-9 months! you feel ready when you can do all the labs confidently, more than once!

Keep us posted

I'm working my way through the material right now and I had the same problem. Someone else on the forum linked to this, and it helped immensely:

It was what I needed to really understand the process.

Thank you globalenjoi,

The forum blocked it out but it's under *****2

Woops, didn't notice at first. Replace that part with t r 0 l l-2 minus the spaces and you should be good. It just blocks out that word for some reason...

jamesleecoleman

All good though.

Thank you for the link again

I'll have to go over it more once I get home. I just wanna understand how this stuff works so I can move on to the labs and then the test.
