The Gamesters of San Francisco

I am at 182 badges. I did a search for Apex to find modules that would help me with studying for the PD1 exam. I found this one the other day (link) on how to prepare for the exam. It listed relevant modules and had some practice exam questions. I think it is relatively new and I don't think too many people know about them. I am going to post the link on Linked In -Ohana bro...

Most people I know struggle with the exam question format and not the concepts. Hopefully Salesforce has recognized this and the modules are a way to address the issue.

Out of Order

One of the influencers that I follow, like a lot of people, is David Liu. Recently he posted a video on how many certifications you should get and the order based on your career path. Interestingly, for all roles the first five or six were the same. After the usual suspects he suggests the Sales and Service Cloud certifications. 

One thing I wished I had learned sooner is that he believes in getting PD1 later in the architect journey. On LinkedIn I have seen a few people get this certification towards the end of their architect certification journey. It's too late for me since I am pretty far into studying and think that if I put it aside I will need to start from scratch. But after that I need to seriously consider the two main consulting certifications. 

Here's the video below..
