Kathy can also recommend where students can take the exam.
Do I need to buy books?

and the course is built around learning how to use them correctly.

The course helps students get familiar with the books and the exam format instead of relying on memorization alone.
When should I take the certification exam?
Kathy recommends taking the exam as soon as you are ready, ideally within a short period after training, so the material is still fresh and you are still comfortable using the books.
Are refunds available?
No. The program has a no refund policy. However, students may be allowed to rejoin training again. You can confirm details before enrolling.
Will this guarantee certification or a job?
No. This program is designed to help you prepare for certification and build real coding knowledge, but certification, passing scores, and employment are not guaranteed.
