So I'm up to renew my NCSE and NCSE-ONTAP certs - was down for a month with Covid and like five of my certs lapsed as a result. Bummer. Anyway - was reviewing the reference list for documents and training, and everything was ONTAP specific. Didn't see anything not related for ONTAP for the base NCSE exam. All good. Then took the practice test - which I know is only 10 questions but I like to take them anyway just for fun. The test included a question on Eseries, one on Storage Grid, and one on SolidFire/Element OS. So - question is - which is representative of the actual test - the training/reference document list, or the practice test? Bob

Hi all, my question is how the efficient preparation for the Netapp exam should look like. To be honest, I have no practical experience with storage devices. Neverthless, I have done some Netapp labs, which I find cool. So, what is better? Just read the 3000+ pages of documentation? Doing some labs? The thing is that the questions starts with the hypothetical claim - what would you do if you experienced this and that issue? I have no clue about this possibilities and how to solve them. Even the Netapp virtual course is not much helpful, since it doesnt prepare for the exam itself. Then, I would say, it is fair to create a prerequisite certification or course or whatever, which should be interstage between no experience and full NCDA knowledge. Then, I can read hundreds of text, but I do not know what is important what not. Simply, I can not measure my improvement, which is higly frustrating. Maybe it would be wiser to have 3 levels of NCDA, lets say Bronze level, Silver level and Golden level of knowledge within one NCDA certificate. Cheers!
