New Alteryx Student

Hello everyone! I’m new to the alteryx program and I’m fascinated by all the different features. I plan on taking the Alteryx certification exam and I was wondering if anyone had any tips or advice on how to pass. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi @josephsico

The below will the one stop learning platform for your preparation.

Break into 2 parts:

1. Go through all the tools in Tools Palette and their usage/limitations.

2. Also request you too practice as much as possible with Challenges before taking up the exam.

Answering 80 questions in 2 hours for Core Designer will be ending up in time crunch.

My suggestion would be:  Also checked how others solved the issue, which will give more ideas to approach a problem and arrive at a solution.

As nowadays most of the companies have started using Alteryx in future it will be like one of MANDATORY applications like Excel.

All the best for your exam. Welcome to the Alteryx community.

Many thanks

Hi,

I would do the weekly challenges.  You can do the old ones then compare your answer to others.  Here's a link:
