On October 20, 2017, I became a certified Sharing and Visibility Designer! Yes, I did pat myself on the back!
After that, I wanted to write about my experience and preparation strategies. However, I was busy working on my book that I just submitted for publishing! – Salesforce Process Builder Quick Start Guide. Now that I am done with my book, I have the bandwidth to work on the article. Why not leverage insights of the article and join the club of Sharing and Visibility Designer Certified professionals?
So, let us get started!
Personally, I have not come across any documentation to prepare for this exam. However, let me share with you my unexpected, unnerving, and hopefully rare, experience with this exam!
Set a strict timeline for the exam preparation
After you decide to appear for the exam, it is time to gather information about the exam and think about what steps you will put in place in order to ace it. Once you have a concrete timeline, begin to think about how you will integrate a sound study plan around the rest of your responsibilities – work/home balance etc. Having a concrete date to study towards the exam will help you stay motivated and disciplined.
Learning styles differ widely – so, there is no magic formula that one can follow to clear an exam. The best practice is to study for a few hours daily – rain or shine! Below are some details about the exam and study materials:
- 60 multiple-choice/multiple-select questions* (2–5 unscored questions may be added) – 120 mins
- 68% is the passing score
