Description

This is not a course that teaches the platform — it is the run at the exam once you already know it. It opens with how the exam is actually scored, then works through every domain in blueprint order, including the Agentforce material added when the exam was re-cut, and closes with exam day and a full-length mock.

Take it after CORE-110, in the fortnight before you sit. Its value is in pacing, in knowing which domains carry weight, and in finding the gaps while there is still time to close them.

Who this course is for

  • Administrators who have done the work and are booking the exam.
