ArcGIS Developer Foundation 2201 course is the instructor-led class necessary to pass the certification exam

[JayDFZ]

Hello,

I am a web developer and I want to get a GIS certification. I've been looking at the ArcGIS Developer Foundation 2201 certification and just saw that there's a related learning plan. This course includes an instructor-led class that costs 2020$ which I cannot afford at the moment. Is it absolutely necessary or can I pass the certification exam without it, just by doing all the other courses in that learning plan?

I appreciate your help

Thank you

Hi @JayDFZ 

Our Esri Exam Preparation Resources article details some resources that we have available, however completing a learning plan does not guarantee a passing score on the exam, nor is it required to complete. Exam preparation is a balance between combining experience with information from many resources.   

I hope this helps!
