So currently, I am reading ServiceNow Administration Fundamentals: Participant Guide (Vancouver) version. I had rescheduled my exam plenty times as I can't focus during the holidays. The thing is, Xanadu will be released this January 15, I want to know if the study guide will be updated to Xanadu version and where can I read release notes.
The tip I received is to read thoroughly on the study guide.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi @vanessalcmo
There will be an updated Xanadu version of the course and study guide published after Jan. 15, but unfortunately they will only be available to people who sign up to take the course after that time.
However, this isn't something to worry about. The changes to the questions in the CSA exam from one release to another are minimal. To pass the exam, it's far more important to understand the core concepts from the course, rather than concerning yourself with the minor differences between family releases.
Having said that, it's a good idea to review the Xanadu release notes briefly prior to taking the test, just so you're familiar with what's changed.
The release notes are here:

Hi @dimitrios_l
Don't over-think it. I haven't taken the Xanadu CSA exam, but the wisdom from across the Community is that only a handful of questions change from one version of the exam to the next. More important about worrying about new features is that you focus on understanding the basic concepts, as outlined in the exam blueprint.
Some other points to help put your mind at rest:
Review the Xanadu delta guide:
This contains what ServiceNow think current CSA-holders should know about Xanadu, so it's also presumably what they think is important for new candidates to know.
If you really want to ensure you're up-to-date, review the Washington-Xanadu upgrade notes on the docs site.
Finally, the fact you know about the change re the reporting features moving to PA suggests to me you're already knowledgeable enough about recent changes and you will have nothing to worry about.

Hello @dimitrios_l , I passed the exam first try and I did not see any questions about Xanadu on my set of questions. To be safe, still learn about it, maybe I am just lucky.
The blueprint helped me to review what areas to focus on, https://nowlearning.servicenow.com/kb?id=kb_article_view&sys_kb_id=7142edb287311650bfe94088dabb3512
