Online documentation will be available for the skill based sections but one must be careful not to waste too much of their time using it. There is approximately a half hour of orientation information before the examination begins.

 

What skills are tested?
  • See the Skill Requirements on the tabs above for a list of the functionality that may be tested.

 

How will the certification examination be graded?
  • An automatic grading program will be used. This program provides consistency as well as removes subjectivity of the grader

 

What percentage of answers need to be answered correctly in order to pass the test?
  • 70%

 

What option do I have if I do not pass the test? Can it be retaken? In what time period? Will the retest be the same test?
  • The test can be retaken. Since the certification fee will have to be paid again, there is no time constraint on the test taker. The same test will not be given the second time

 

What can I do to prepare?
  • As part of the NX Designer Certified Professional program, Siemens Digital Industries Software developed an online pre-certification assessment tool that can be found on the Xcelerator Academy web site under assessments. There is no charge for this pre-certification assessment. This tool will help you evaluate your skills prior to the NX Designer Certified Professional examination

 

Are the questions on the assessment test the same as on the certification test?
  • No, however they deal with the same functionality

 

Are they similar?
  • What is similar to you may be very different to me. What I would say is that the assessment tool deals with knowledge base (memory) and skills base task. By working with the assessment tool, the user should be able to establish whether or not they are ready to take the certification test

 

Is the certification for a certain version of NX?
  • The NX Designer Certification is available in NX 10.0, NX 9.0, NX 8.5 and NX 7.5.

 

How does this tie into the Masters Certificate Program?
  • If you completed the courses of the Design Master Training Program and gained experience by developing the skills you were taught in those classes, you should have the expertise necessary to successfully complete the Designer Certification. Completing the Master Training Certificate program shows you have taken the correct classes - NX Designer Certified Professional certification proves you have the skills

  • What is similar to you may be very different to me. What I would say is that the assessment tool deals with knowledge base (memory) and skills base tasks. By working with the assessment tool, the user should be able to establish whether or not they are ready to take the certification test

 

Is the certification for a certain version of Teamcenter?
  • Certifications will sometimes span multiple releases. For example, Teamcenter Certification will be acceptable for future releases of Teamcenter
