Exam format

This exam is a performance-based evaluation of your Camel development skills and knowledge. You will perform tasks associated with the development and maintenance of enterprise integration patterns using Red Hat Fuse. Performance-based testing means that you must perform tasks similar to those you perform on the job.

Internet access is not provided during this closed exam, and you will not be permitted to bring any hard copy or electronic documentation into the exam. This prohibition includes notes, books, or any other material. However, you are provided with a local copy of the official Fuse documentation. You should familiarize yourself with this documentation when preparing for the exam.

Exam results are reported as total scores. Red Hat does not report performance on individual items, nor will it provide additional information upon request.
