Hi All,

I just wanted to do the Splunk power user certification, can you please let me know the process and cost, meanwhile i am having couple of queries

1) I have gone through the certification module tab, whether it is mandatory to register for Splunk power user certification module course before taking the exam , can't we take directly the exam(if yes what is the cost)

2)Incase of my company is not providing the cost of examination and i want to do myself , whether the costing factor will come while registering for the course or can i register freely for course and need to the pay the cost only while taking exam,

please clarify the same

You cannot take directly the exam. You need to do the required courses first.

For Power User Certification these are the courses:
- Using Splunk
- Searching and Reporting with Splunk
- Creating Splunk Knowledge Objects
- Splunk Infrastructure Overview (eLearning)

You can check prices and info about all the course in the Splunk Education site: https://inter.viewcentral.com/Events/cust/catalog.aspx?cid=splunk&pid=1

Check the Calendar section for incoming courses and the prices

you can always send an email to education@splunk.com
