This course uses a top-down approach to recognize knowledge and skills already known, and to surface information and skill areas for additional preparation. Students can use this course to help create their own custom preparation plan. It helps distinguish what they know from what they don't know. And it helps students develop and practice skills required of practitioners who perform this job. The course follows the organization of the Exam Guide outline, presenting highest-level concepts, 'touchstones', for students to determine whether they feel confident about their knowledge of that area and its dependent concepts, or if they want more study. They also will learn about and have the opportunity to practice key job skills, including cognitive skills such as case analysis, identifying technical watchpoints, and developing proposed solutions. These are job skills that are also exam skills. They will also test their basic abilities with Activity Tracking Challenge Labs. And they will have many sample questions similar to those on the exam, including solutions. The end of the course contains an ungraded practice exam quiz, followed by a graded practice exam quiz that simulates the exam-taking experience.
