When are the results of the beta exams due?

andre

From what I understood, the cutoff is still to be determined based on the scores and the comments of the participants, yes. I imagine setting that level is not easy to do. Still, I would very much like to hear the results right about now, but I am with you in your suspicion that we can probably only expect it in 2011.

We're all a bit eager about these results :-) But I think that we won't get them until January.

I would like to get a reaction for a knowledgeable Troll on this topic. Seeing our own offices empty out for the holiday season, I imagine it is not much different in Oslo or whereever the Trolls working on certification hang out. An update on the status of the Qt Specialist certifications would be welcome.

FWIW I logged into my Pearson account a few minutes ago and the status of the tests changed from "taken" to "pass". But I did not get any eMail or so, so I am still not 100% sure whether it is real or just some kind of system hiccup :-)

andre

Very interesting! I don't have such an account (AFAIK, had troubles with that when taking the test at the last dev days too), so I can't check for myself!

I guess: congrats!
Did you take the advanced beta tests? If so, you are already a Certified Developer, so you have earned a badge for that at least. Ask MariusG how to get one.

I've checked my Pearson VUE account too and confirm that status was changed (I also have both adv exams with "pass" status). So official results notification is near? :)

Hey, the state has changed, that's good to know. So I think they finished the stuff and will send out the certificates :-)

andre

If all goes well, I'll get some login info from Pearson soon, so I hope I'll be able to check my results too... Exciting!

dangelog

Whoohoo! A good Christmas present :-)

goetz

Yeah indeed. I just checked and it seems that the results are checked in at Pearson Vue :-)

andre

Yes! A pass for both the Advanced Widgets and the C++ for Qt exams. :-)

Seems I can claim that "Nokia Certified Qt Specialist" badge. Nice way to end the year!

troubalex

Hehe. We were counting the seconds here. Yes, there will be more badges coming. :)

giesbert

Do you have more christmas presents for us?
But I think, tomorrow you will also have days off, right?

troubalex

No special plans for presents any more, I'm afraid. ;)

Yes, we do have the day off tomorrow to decorate our trees, wrap the presents and slave in the kitchen (and the rest of the apartment in my case). At least, I'm done with all the shopping...

falcone

Yes! My status is "pass" for the two exams.

fcrochik

I was hoping for something a little more dramatic: pass.... not even the score... OK, it is better than fail :)

I am still waiting for my t-shirt! They told me that I could get one only if I passed the test... Here you have it, I did :)

So now back to the basics... at least I will get a nice badge under my avatar :)

milot.shala

Yes! My status is "pass" on two exams (also on the Qt Essentials :P) :D

When can we expect the certificates arrival?

I think we should wait for the official email to arrive, after that the certificates should be printed then mailed to us.

dangelog

Just got the official email. Cheers!
