Early this year, the Adobe Credential Program enlisted the help of Marketo champions, Adobe experts & an assessment expert, to update the Marketo Engage Business Practitioner Expert exam. Clevertouch were delighted to be invited and Matt Prior, Technical Consultant, joined Adobe's team as subject matter expert.

Commenting on the new certification content, Matt Prior said, “The new certification is brilliantly structured in six distinct sections which cover the essentials of Marketo. As well as teaching the technical aspects, the new exam puts real-world use at the core of the syllabus to provide relevance for the modern marketer. This elevates the certification above other platforms and positions it as a best of breed credential.”

In order to ensure the latest version of Adobe Certified Expert - Marketo Engage Business Practitioner was as relevant as possible, the team conducted job task analysis, composed questions, reviewed then approved/rejected each question. The team then built the exam to industry standards and Adobe certification levels. Josephine Elizaga, Exam Developer/Marketo Certification Manager, from the Adobe Credential Program led the team through multiple discussion rounds, promoting cooperation and camaraderie during many long meetings.

The AD0-E554 Adobe Marketo Engage Business Practitioner expert exam is available to customers, end users, partners, and consultants. There are free preparation materials to support a candidate including a readiness questionnaire and practice test (a full exam with the same quality as the actual test). Links are in the exam guide which you can find here.
