CSA: Take the Vancouver exam or wait until Washington releases?

Hi all,

 

I've been studying to take my CSA since the 11th and am planning to take it a bit sooner than I'd like on July 4th, the reason being that I will be out of the country from July 5th to the 18th. Should I take it before I leave with my free CSA voucher, or wait until July 30th when Washington exams are available? 

 

Basically, will there be a big difference in exam material between the Vancouver and Washington exams? I'm worried as I'm studying off the Fundamentals course and EBook.

Hi @Nguyenkm16 ,

You can take up the exam right now on July 4th.

You can renew your certificate when Delta Exams will be available. Delta will tell you what are the new features introduced.

 

I don't think deltas are relevant to this question, @Community Alums. 

 

@Nguyenkm16 is asking a sitting the CSA for the first time, not renewing a certification.

Hi @Simon Hendery ,

I believe what @Nguyenkm16  asked i answered on the first line around taking up the exam and the mentioned delta such that if he is looking for the features updates between releases, that won't be missed if taking the delta exam.

Hi @Nguyenkm16 - if you feel you need more time to study, wait until after July 30. The changes in content between the Vancouver and Washington exams will be minimal. To pass the exam, it's much more important that you feel confident about the underlying aspects of the platform, rather than the changes between releases.
