Test 000-372: IBM WebSphere Business Modeler Advanced V6.2, Business Analysis and Design


Overview Objectives Test Preparation
Training Resources   |   Sample / Assessment Test   

To prepare for Test 000-372, it is first recommended that you are familiar with the job role description and the parameters this certification is based on, as well as have knowledge of the topics outlined in the test objectives/skills measured on the test. Compare your own technical level to the test objectives and the recommended training resources, and then determine for yourself how much preparation you require. Note that these educational sources are recommended, but not required (*) before taking a certification test. 

Before preparing for the certification test, it is recommended that you measure your current level of skill by taking the Assessment Test (located from the "Sample/Assessment test" link above). After you have completed your test preparation/training, you can assess your improved level of skill and readiness for the certification test, by re-taking the Assessment Test. 

You can prepare for the test through the Tutor Approach (classroom, instructor led course) or the Self-Study Approach. Sources within each approach collectively cover the skills measured on the test. 

To prepare via the Tutor Approach, take course [WB282 or VB282 or ZB282] OR [(WB284 or VB284 or ZB284) + (WB286 or VB286  or ZB286)] and refer to the sources with an * in front of them.  Note that per this formula, you are required to take either 1 or 2 courses. 

To prepare via the Self-Study Approach, omit the course, and refer to all other sources with and without the * in front.


(*) Notes: 
  1. The recommended educational resources listed are not intended to be a substitute for, but should complement, relevant practical experience.
  2. Extensive product knowledge is required to pass the test. 
  3. Every effort has been made to make the recommended educational resources as complete and as accurate as possible, but no warranty of fitness is implied. The resources provided are on an as is basis. IBM shall have neither liability nor responsibility to any person or entity with respect to any loss or damages arising from course or publication content.
  4. Some InfoCenter pages include links to related topics.  For the purpose of this exam, test takers are not required to review these associated pages, unless otherwise indicated on the individual references below.
