CAD Exam schedule before appearing for CSA

[SwapnilC]

Hi everyone,

Our organization's 400 learning credits will expire tomorrow. I have the CSA exam booked for next week, and I've checked the eligibility for CAD to complete the Application Development Fundamental course.

I have two questions:

1. Can I use the remaining credits to schedule the CAD exams?
2. Is it possible to take the CAD exam before receiving the CSA results?

Hi @SwapnilC 

My thought say, NO CSA is must for CAD. So why not you reschedule CSA for early and then go for CAD.

1. Can I use the remaining credits to schedule the CAD exams?

Yes , you can. BUt are those points sufficient to book exam?

2. Is it possible to take the CAD exam before receiving the CSA results?

I think , Yes, but better give CSA first and then CAD.

Hi @SwapnilC 

I am the best example of the same. I appeared for CIS SIR which i failed 2 times (The main attempt and 1 Retake). My first retake was free of cost means I used the same voucher code for 1st retake but in 2nd retake, it was not free. Later I checked with my org. account manager and he told me as per the agreement only 1st retake is free and for retake 2/3/4 $100 plus taxes will be applicable. and I paid for same.

So in this case please check with your manager / SN account manager and clarify. But I am sure, a 2/3/4 retake is chargeable for you.
