First Week of Adapt

[Clarus19]

Gotta say I enjoyed my first week. Used Power Query which is good in its own right and this is unreal.  My goal is to get every ounce of knowledge in regards to Alteryx for the next 6 months and hopefully that knowledge will translate to 3 certificates in regards to Alteryx.  I know after core I will not have the great blueprint I have now and I am hoping for some guidance in regards to mastering what is necessary to be great at Alteryx.

@Clarus19 , 

Same here! I plan on making data science a career, and this all seems like the ideal environment to learn! Good luck with your learning, and please reach out if you ever want to work on things together.

Good luck!

I want to get the core certificate first then move on to the advanced.  This is some unreal software!

Hi @Clarus19 ,

That's good ! I think completing the ADAPT program and practicing with some challenges will give you what you need to pass the Designer Core !

Cheers,

Whats your thoughts on passing the advanced? The 2nd of three progressive certifications

Hi @Clarus19 ,

There is a true difference in level between the Designer Core and Advanced. The new subjects (macros, spatial, reporting, interface) are on another level of difficulty and the practical exercises about any tool that you had in the core are harder.

Also, the reporting tools aren't really good and user-friendly so it's hard to master them.

But that shouldn't discourage you, the learning process is truly interesting and mastering those aspects of the software will open another world of possibilities. So once you got your Designer Core, learn, practice, get certified and enjoy !

Cheers,

Jean-Baptiste
