Hello @batul 

what is the cost for the exam??

  • CSA training is $300 and exam is $300 plus taxes. If you are working with Partner org then it is free else need to pay.

when will that CSA certificate expire??

  • Until the next Delta exams for new release.

in the next 3 years or I have to take the delta exams??

  • Yes, you need to take up the delta exam every year to renew the certificate for new release

delta exams also have to be purchased?? or free??

  • It needs to be purchased.

when will be the next delta exam if my CSA exam is in january??

  • Since you will be taking Xanadu version CSA exam therefore next delta will be next year.

Hope this helps!

Hi @batul  @Juhi Poddar 

 

Delta exams are technically free if you're working with a partner company. Either you or your company needs to pay the $200 maintenance fee to keep your mainline certification active. So, stating that the delta exam needs to be purchased isn't entirely accurate.

Hi, thanks for the information. I got a question too; say that you got the CSA and then you want to do the CIS-SM exam. Do the CSA has to be still valid before doing the next exam? If I got certified with the CIS-SM, would I need to only renew the latter or also the CSA?

 

Thanks.
