Happy Wednesday SCP THWACKsters!

Great news everyone!

We have created a new exam for Database Management.

The study guide for the new exam is available on the SCP program page.

Database Management will be available for BETA testing beginning Friday, February 16.

Happy testing!

We open testing for a period of time to collect comments from candidates and then make adjustments as needed. It is the same process as our regular process, just a shorter period of time.

I've got 4 SCPs currently (so i guess i dont need to do the registration step again?) how do I sign up for the beta? Is it through PSI?

I did look for a link, I didnt find, likely overlooking something obvious

The registration is the same for all exams. The exam is through PSI. Register through our website (select the exam you want to take in the drop down menu) and then with PSI.

The exams are all $200 even for the Beta. If you pass in the Beta you get your certification. If you don't pass, you can ask for a free retest. The only difference is that we are collecting feedback from a shorter period of time.
