Hey @r4upadhye -- we assign the Core Certification badge in bulk to users who passed the exam within a given period. You can find more information about the Alteryx Certification program and corresponding exam here.

Thank you in advance for your patience!

Hi everyone.
I am training myself on Alteryx for the last 4 months.
Alteryx really is a very powerful tool, I plan to keep learning and exploring it more.
I would like to know more about this certification. Will getting certified counts in the job market?

Can any of the certified designers provide me with some retrospective?

Thanks!

I have taken this exam twice and I have managed a score of 76.7%. I am not sure where I am going wrong since there is no key after each attempt.
Some tips will be really appreciated.

Hello @MohammedAnsari - I would suggest to make note of the questions that you are not confident of and revisit it later to ensure that your answers are correct.

Be careful with multiple options, the solutions are close, and it is easy to mark an incorrect answer. Create a dummy data and check if you are getting the correct answers.

Also, I personally feel, some the answers are really close and unless you read carefully you are bound to trip on those questions.

BTW you are not far and I am sure next time you will pass the exam! Hope this help - All the best

Hi Mohammed

I would suggest you read the question carefully, 2 letters make a big difference in the answer. I did the exam and i almost fell for it, there was a question with 2 different words unchecked and checked, the answer was totally different. Also if you haven't done the "getting started" i would suggest to do it before trying the exam.

Thanks for the advice.
I have cleared the exam a couple of weeks ago.
But thanks for the response :)

Hey ydmuley,

Is there negative marking for the wrong answers in the Designer Core Exam ?

Thanks,

Hello All,

I have recently downloaded Alteryx and have been studying for the certification.

Is there a way I can get some sample questions to see the level of difficulty of the exam ?

Thanks for your help.

Re: Alteryx Designer Core Certification

Derangedvisions — Tue, 01 May 2018 15:37:46 GMT

@Nikunjpasari15 there are a couple of sample questions attached on the certification page (in the videos at the bottom of the page)

I found going through the interactive lessons most helpful- the lessons go over a huge portion of the core certification.

Good Luck!

Re: Alteryx Designer Core Certification

Nikunjpasari15 — Tue, 01 May 2018 16:06:26 GMT

Thanks. I just checked it and I feel the answers are not correct because they are not matching my answers. Is there any way I can get the correct answers to those 4 sample questions just to check whether I am getting those questions right or not ?

Again Thanks for helping.

Derangedvisions — Tue, 01 May 2018 17:39:54 GMT

If you did the sample exam- the answers are at the bottom of the page. (sorry my previous post linked to the certification page and not the sample exam)

Also, you can take the exam three times within a month- so when you feel you are ready you can always just take it once to get a feel for how the questions are worded- you will never get the answers though (or which questions you got wrong) you will only get a break out by % of how well you did in each section (based on the tools) and a total score.
