Will taking the L1 legacy courses negatively impact my knowledge for the current L1 exam?

Hi there,
I recently completed the [L1-AP] course, and I want to take the L1 exam. However, I see there are two legacy courses: [L1-DS], and [L1-DW]. I would like to take these courses before writing the L1 exam, but since they are legacy courses, I am worried that it will negatively impact my knowledge on KNIME for the L1 exam.

Do you recommend that I take these two legacy courses before writing the L1 exam, or is only taking the latest [L1-AP] course sufficient?

Many thanks
Daniel

Hi, @Daniel_Fourie, and welcome to the KNIME Forum. :slight_smile:

Taking the L1-AP course suffices for the L1 certification exam.

Cheers,

Thank you. I am busy reading the KNIME Beginner’s Luck PDF. Once I have completed it, I will write the L1 exam.

@alinebessa Hi, I passed the exam today! :slight_smile: I received my Credly bade (Basic Proficiency in KNIME Analytics Platform - Credly) as well as my certificate. However, on the https://knime.learnupon.com/my-awards it says I have no badges. Are these other types of badges or will my L1-AP badge reflect soon?
Thanks

Your certification badges are managed by Credly, not on our LearnUpon. Consequently you do not see your badges on LearnUpon. LearnUpon simply administers certification exams and keeps track of which exams you are eligible to take. I hope this answers your question.

Kind regards,

Thank you. Is there a unique L1 exam ID I can find somewhere to add to my LinkedIn? There is a section called Credential ID when uploading certifications.

Thanks

Hi @Daniel_Fourie! I’ve found this at the bottom of a Credly support article:

Please Note: Credly does not provide credential ID’s. This is an optional field and can be left blank.
