IBM Content Manager v8.3 certification

[Reagan Rosario]

hi everyone,

I'm planning to get certified on the IBM content manager v8.3 and need some pointers as to where I can start my studies from?

I have been in contact with IBM and they gave me few link which are as follows:
http://www-03.ibm.com/certify/certs/27003002.shtml
and
http://www-03.ibm.com/certify/tests/obj443.shtml

this is basically the "
IBM Certified Solution Designer -- DB2 Content Manager V8.3" certification.

Has any one given this certification before? Please help me.

you can also contact IBM at their email id: [e-mail]

please get back I'd be grateful.


Regards,
Reagan.

I can recommend taking the "Content Manager V8 Implementation and Administration" course. You can sign up through:
http://www-304.ibm.com/jct03001c/services/learning/ites.wss/zz/en?pageType=tp_search
and search for "IM40" to find a course offered to a location near you.

Further I can recommend following information resources:
Content Manager Implementation and Migration Cookbook
http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/sg247051.html

Online Information Center for Content Manager V8
