Has anyone taken the CIS- Data Foundations (CMDB & CSDM) Exam?

I have the voucher and want to prep. For those that have taken it:

What did you do to prep?

How difficult was it?

Hi @shevangi 

Log in to SN University and navigate here:

https://learning.servicenow.com/lxp/en/pages/now-learning-get-certified?id=amap_detail&achievement_i...

Confirm you've completed all of the pre-req courses, scroll down and click on the bottom in the tile tile that's under 'Take your exam'.

From there you pay the fee (450 USD!!) and book.

Your options are either an online proctored exam or to take the exam at a physical exam center that's close to you.

I have completed all pre-req courses but am going through to freshen my knowledge. For the registration though, I thought I read on LinkedIn that its now free until June 2026. Is my understanding correct for the registration cost? Do you happen to know?

Hi @Nickie Gaehle !

Wait until Dec 10 to book. It will be free then:

Also, people, don't hesitate to reach out to pros like Julian, who has taken the exam and is offering to share his experience:
