C_BODI_20 preparation materials

Hi,
I'm taking 'SAP BusinessObjects Data Integrator XI R2' exam this month. Does anyone know of some good prep materials for this exam (beside SAP official courses)? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Danijel

SAP Certification exam questions come from the course material so the best way to study is directly from the course materials. Information about the areas that you need to study and sample test questions are available from the following web site.
http://www.sap.com/services/education/certification/certificationtest.epx?context=%5B%5Bc_bodi_20%7Cg%5D%5D%7C
The competency table tells you what topics to study and has links to the classes in which you learn them. The classes give you a table to contents that you can compare to any books you purchase so you can be sure that you are studying the correct concepts.
If you are in the United States you may be able to get a 50% discount on the cost of the certification exam. (http://scn.sap.com/thread/1697904). To my knowledge, while you may be able to book an exam online, you have to go to an proctored physical exam location. Exams are computer based and you get your results immediately, but they can not be taken remotely.
If you're in Asia Pacific, you'll need to take your training from one of the Authorized Training Partners in order to sit for the exam unless you have 2 full implementations and an authorized implementation partner to sponsor you. (Assuming the policy is the same for Business Object certifications as for SAP Certifications.)
SAP provides some excellent training on how to find the correct certification course and the classes associated with the certification at https://educops.sap.com/demohub/demo/taprep/launch.htm. At that link you'll find

  • Review of CCIE Storage Lab preparation materials

    I did a review of the ieMentor CCIE Storage Workbook and Walkthrough books for CCIE Storage lab study.  You can read my review here
    The short of it is I found the materials to be very good.  If anyone has any specific questions about them feel free to contact me.

  • Some thoughts on the dearth of training materials for the new MCSE certifications

    Mostly this is venting... while it would be nice to see some remediation, I have no such expectations.
    Given that Windows Server 2012 was GA 15 months ago, I'm severely disappointed at the lack of published training guides targeted to the MCSA and MCSE certifications (most notably the 70-413 and 70-414), and specifically with respect to the objectives involving
    System Center that are included in those examinations.
    I used the Exam Ref by Steve Suehring, and frankly was quite disappointed, although I'm not sure whether to blame the book, or the question pool on the exam. What I did observe was that a significant percentage of the concepts discussed in the Exam Ref book,
    and ostensibly in the objectives for the exam, were not actually touched at all by the exam. More significantly, I encountered concepts on the exam that were not even mentioned in the Exam Ref. Presumably the Training Guide (700 pages) will go into much more
    detail (e.g. the exam I encountered seemed very heavy with respect to Active Directory Site design), but it won't be available until April (at the earliest).
    Further, there's nothing available in the realm of preparation materials for the 70-414. The Exam Ref was supposed to be available in September 2013. (The O'Reilly site says March 2014, but the MS Exam Page is not yet updated.) Who knows when it
    will really be available, and I don't even see a mention of an actual Training Guide for this exam.
    Adding insult to injury, I bought into the special last spring to take the -417, -413, and -414 (which expires tomorrow), and have been unsuccessful at passing the -413 (due to the poor prep materials) and didn't even consider the -414 (due to the non-existent
    prep materials).  Frankly, I feel very ripped off -- (And if the actual questions on the -413 compared to the Exam Ref are any guide, I'm not particularly encouraged by the eventual availability of the -414 Exam Ref.)
    I do see where there's still a discount package available (including 2nd shots) for the MCSE: Server Infrastructure ($255 for both exams plus 2nd shots), available until May 31, 2014-- and expire on December 31, 2014. I think I'll wait until May and see
    if [a] the -413 Training Guide gets published and [b] what the "master plan" will be for training for the -414.
    Btw.. it seems the prospects are no better for the MCSE: Private Cloud exams either.

    For post-production and audio work, having a quieter computer is one of the reasons I ordered a Mac Pro - quieter is good. And as my MDD dual 867Mhz is now as long in the tooth as I am, it couldn't come at a better time. I was really contemplating buying a quad G5 the past 6 months, but then heard the professional desktop would come out during the developer's conference, and I'm glad I waited. The price is absolutely - and insanely - great. Mine should be here on the 15th, and I'll be counting the hours. As for the risers, I'm willing to endure a few nanoseconds as a trade-off.

  • RoboHelp 9 Training for ACE preparation

    I am trying to find a RoboHelp 9 training class to take as I prepare for certification exam but so far all I've found are three-day courses across the country for over a thousand dollars. There do not seem to be any more affordable options, at least not that I've found the in the Washington DC area. I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed - I just need to prepare for this exam. I've been using RH for a year but did not have any formal training (it's all been either self-taught or guidance from a more experienced colleague).
    Are there any online courses any of you may know of, or specific test preparation materials that I should consider?

    LOL, does it matter?
    On a serious note, most of what I do on my own is via the internet with a screen sharing session. Essentially, you share your screen and I "look over your shoulder" as you work through examples and learn the product. We converse in real time. Typically using a headset microphone. But you can be on speaker phone if you like.
    Contact me privately if you are interested. I'm usually here offering free advice, not really here trolling for work. But since you asked...

  • How to prepare for 1zo 052 exam?

    Hi
    I have recently passed my 1zo-051 exam and i am looking forward to taking the next step to become a certfied admin profession .I am not very sure as to how to prepare for the exam should i study dumps and ebooks or should i go for practical training download the software set it up  from scratch and learn ?

    >should i study dumps and ebooks or should i go for practical training download the software set it up  from scratch and learn ?
    'Dumps' is short for Brain Dumps and these are not valid preparation materials.  Using them can cause you to be banned from the Oracle certification program.
    Installing the software is good preparation. You can also find a number of links to valid study materials here:

    Well.. you do have to listen to people on the forum insisting

    Adobe Certified Expert (ACE) exams are much more comprehensive.  To pass this level, you will need to be very familiar with:
    HTML,
    CSS,
    client-side scripts,
    server-side scripts,
    connecting to databases,
    the various behaviors panels,
    working with forms,
    working with Templates,
    and all other aspects of the DW software version you are being tested on.
    In contrast, the Adobe Certified Associate (ACA) exam is more of an intro level exam & not nearly as complex.  It measures basic proficiency with your chosen product.  As such the preparation is not too rigorous either. Below you will find the ACA Prep Guides for DW CS3 - CS6.

  • Preparing for CLAD exam with LV Basics I and II

    Hi
    This is my first post, so I want to say hello to all the users. I am currently preparing for CLAD exam. I participate in a course containing material from Core 1 and Core 2. I also have a CBT Labview Basics I and II kit. Does this CBT kit still cover all topics needed to pass this exam? It says that it`s almost 6 years old, so I want to ensure that it`s still worth of using it. Thanks for all the answers.

    Another couple things to add. I posted this comment a little while ago which reiterates what ajmartin said: http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Do-I-need-Core-3-to-do-CLAD-exam/m-p/1402686#M546312
    "Also be aware, I've spoken to quite a few CLAD exam takers in the last year and they all agree that the current CLAD exams are much harder and trickier than the sample exams here on ni.com. One taker for instance missed only one question the first time he took the sample CLAD exam but failed the actual exam by a couple questions. So make sure you're overprepared!"
    Someone on the NI community made a pretty comprehensive list of preparation materials here:
    http://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-14014 
    Additionally, quite often we work with preparing people for the CLAD exam so I made a video examining a very common type of CLAD question:
    http://blog.sixclear.com/post/2702910705/clad-exam-prep-1
    You can take a look at the notes there which have a few more links to CLAD preparation resources. I'll include this one where someone on the NI community made a pretty comprehensive list of preparation materials:

  • SAP B1 Certification on 8.8

    Hi Experts
    I wants to do certification on 8.8 in SDK (Technical Consultant). I have provided my S-User id by the company. I wants to ask few question regarding this :
    1. How can I do certification through online Portal of SAP or I have to go a authorized SAP Center for Test.
    2. Should I apply for test through my company or myself goto center and apply? Someone said that through company fees is less.
    3. where I can find the model test paper for certifcation?
    4. On the portal of SAP I do't find India's trainging Schedule. Where it is avialable?
    Thanks
    Best Regards
    Jitender

    Hi Jitender,
    With your s-user you have i guess access to the channel partner portal.
    Here you can find the relevant information:
    1) The certification is not online but in a test center.
    You can either contact your local SAP office to find out when the tests are scheduled in your local SAP office.
    or
    You can book your exam online through PearsonVue at www.pearsonvue.com/sap
    To current date we only have the English test published at PearsonVue. Other languages are avaiable at the SAP test centers.
    2) The prices were negotiated with PV and are the same to the SAP test centers.
    A list of prices is published on the portal as well.
    https://service.sap.com/~sapidb/011000358700000809782009
    3)  the certification description can be found here...
    Additional preparation materials are:
    - Study guide: https://service.sap.com/~sapidb/011000358700000848002010E.pdf
    - Self test: https://service.sap.com/~sapidb/011000358700000849402010E/index.htm

  • Adobe Certified Expert Exam Prep.

    Hi, all. I need to get certified with the ACE in Illustrator and Photoshop for work. I feel comfortable with the Design version of the Creative Suite, but I know that the ACE exams are not easy to pass. I'm wondering what the best study/preparation materials are. If anyone has a suggestion from experience, I would really appreciate it, as I am already nervous about having to sit for the exams. I'd feel a lot more confident if I knew I was well-prepared first.
    Thanks so much for your help!

    Always a few questions from ACE book as suggested, and can be seen with every version update of ACE books
    Go through EVERY menu and palette flyout option (I start left to right)
    Go over color mgmt again (though most people turn off color mgmt or leave defaults because it is so complex, always a few questions on that)
    Read the post on these forums (actually an excellent way to one up before the exams, cause it forces you to go into things you don't normally do)
    Search help for keyboard shortcuts and go over all of them. You won't get asked to memorize every keyboard shortcut so don't worry, but again this forces you to break your habit and go into things you might not use)
    Go deep into transparency options and appearance panel
    Do this and you will be condfident and ready

  • What is the best books for MCSA 2012

    pleas can you advice me what are the best books and materials for pass MCSA 2012?
    thank you.

    Hi, HFAA.
    I understand you want to earn the MCSA title for something with a version number of
    2012.
    There are six (6) different MCSA certification titles currently available. Two of them are version 2012, which are Windows Server 2012 and SQL Server 2012. Here is the web page that describes all six (6) MCSA titles:
    http://www.microsoft.com/learning/en-us/mcsa-certification.aspx
    I am going to assume that you are interested in the most popular MCSA 2012 title:
    MCSA: Windows Server 2012.
    The MCSA: Windows Server 2012 description web page is located here:
    http://www.microsoft.com/learning/en-us/mcsa-windows-server-certification.aspx
    Exams
    You need to pass three (3) required exams to earn this title. If you click each of the links below, you will find the exams' descriptions with a
    Skills measured section describing what is on each exam. As well, you will see a Preparation options section full of study resources for each exam. 
    70-410 Installing and Configuring Windows Server 2012
    70-411 Administering Windows Server 2012
    70-412 Configuring Advanced Windows Server 2012 Services
    Preparation Materials
    Unfortunately, Microsoft has recently updated the content for these three (3) exams for
    Windows Server 2012 R2. These new exams will officially be released on January 28th, 2014 (nine (9) days away). Because of that, all of the previously released study materials (books, exams, etc.) for 70-410, 70-411, and 70-412
    will only be partially helpful in getting you ready for the exams.
    However, Microsoft Press and O'Reilly Media are currently updating their books to include the new
    R2 content and will be releasing them in February, March, and April of this year. The previous releases of their books seem to get the best reviews on Amazon for helping students prepare. Here are the books, with links on Amazon and
    O'Reilly. As time goes by, books from other publishers will also be released.
    Amazon:
    http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=%22Windows%20server%202012%20r2%22%20exam
    O'Reilly Media:
    http://search.oreilly.com/?q=%22Server+2012+R2%22+exam&x=9&y=15
    By the way, I tend to believe the O'Reilly's release dates are more accurate since they are the folks who are actually releasing the books!
    WARNING: As of today (01/19/2014), I don't believe any of the three legitimate Practice Test Providers (Transcender, SelfTest, and MeasureUp) have updated their practice exams for Windows Server 2012 R2 - yet. If I am wrong, I hope someone
    will correct me.
    Focus all your studies on Windows Server 2012 R2 and should be ready to take on an exam. Always prepare for one exam at a time and then take it.
    Also, make sure you take advantage of Microsoft's free Second Shot voucher program, which allows you to retake an exam for free in case you fail it the first time. This program will retire in May.
    http://www.microsoft.com/learning/en-us/second-shot.aspx
    Good luck!

  • Advice on Learning Photoshop and getting certified - Can anyone help?

    All,
    I am currently using Photoshop CS6 and have been gradually self teaching now since CS4. I am by no means an expert, perhaps barely even intermediate but I am keen to do something about this. I am a qualified Comptia Technical Trainer and notice that with the ACE exam under my belt I would be qualified to teach Photoshop. I have a long way to go and do not currently use Photoshop for anything more than a hobby.
    I appreciate I need to get some more hands on time with the application and also start tp produce some work and build a portfolio. However before I am prepared to put myself out there and tout for work I want to get to a point where I feel more confident with the feature set and feel that I know enough to claim some level of expertise.
    I have looked at the ACA exam and the ACE and both seem like viable options and perhaps both will be part of my journey. I cant afford the time in my current job and financially at the moment to do any courses so I hoped to start off with some self teaching. I have looked at Adobe classroom in a book and that seems like a good start but doesnt by any means take me to the level required. Does anyone have any recommendations for learning material that could help brudge the gap? Has nayone done these exams and has experience or tips they could share to help me get on my way?
    My current thought process is to get the classroom in a book and cover all the basics (some of which I will likely know, lots  I wont) then I wonder if thats enough skill to then take the ACA? If not what can get me there? Then I thought I would work towards the ACE, again though here I dont know what to do to leanr the skills needed? I cant seem to find any dedicated books. Is a course my only option or can someone recommend anything?
    I am aware that I have asked loads of questions above, if anyone can offer any advice on any of the above I would be grateful. Experiecne of the exams, good books to read etc.
    Hope someone out there can point me in the right direction.
    Thanks in advance,
    James

    Alot of CS5 but I assume thats because CS6 is still relatviely new?
    Yes. You can expect more CS6 resources in a few weeks/ months. There are a handful of new features that were introduced in CS6. However, the basics that you cover in CS5 will still help in CS6.
    I had looked at two options to start me off. There is the Classroom in a Book by AdobePress and the Learn by Video option Core Training in Visual Communication which seem good places to start. Do you know if either of these compliment each other or cover the same content? its not entirely clear from the limited descriptions on the website.
    I'm not quite sure. I have read/ gone through neither. I've learnt by experience.
    Its such a vast topic and so much to consider.
    More than the books, what will help you more is real-life experience. Books are only a reference point. Your experience will speak for itself in the test.
    A couple of more resources you may want to check out:
    http://www.adobe.com/education/resources/certificate-programs/preparation-materials.html
    http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/education/pdfs/certification-path-individuals.pd f
    Also, you may want to visit www.lynda.com - they have great video training courses that will help you.
    All the very best!

    Hi Deepak,
    It is not possible to get, you cannot officially get SAP preparation materials online. You need to enroll to SAP training course for getting the books. You may try to ask your colleagues / friends who took SAP training before - maybe they still have the books and can lend them to you.
