Hi @RolandWilson 

why should I opt for the Beta version?

What are the benefits?

 

In the past, I remember that the beta was offered at half the price, (150$ the normal price for the Specialty, but that for beta version was offered at 75$).

Now i see that the price increased to match the core exams. (250$)

Thanks!

Hi @PanGIS !  Very good questions!

why should I opt for the Beta version? We've put together a blog that goes into detail, check it out here! https://community.esri.com/t5/esri-technical-certification-exam-development/esri-beta-exam-faqs/ba-p...

What are the benefits? One of the biggest benefits is that you'll be one of the first to receive the certification if a passing score is achieved. This will be a completely new exam.

In regards to pricing, we have made all exams $250.

Let me know if you have additional questions!

I can't seem to register for this exam in Pearson Vue.  Where is the exam?  I have purchased a voucher.

Hi @khogan39 ! Thanks for reaching out. We pushed the registration date back to 11/20 at that time you'll be able to register for your exam at PearsonVue and choose which date you'd like to take your exam.

Does the exam have to be taken before the end of the registration window or just scheduled to take the exam?

Hi @bbaker_tngeo - the exam has to be taken by December 18th.

Hello @RolandWilson 

When going to the Exam Details Page in Esri Academy, will there be a specific option to purchase the Beta exam?  Currently, I don’t see that option.

It seems to be available on the Pearson VUE site.

Exam taken.

Now the issue is to survive for the next 8/10 weeks for the results...less than 24 hours ago I took the exam and I've already checked CertMetrics 10 times.
