• Go through the DCA certification Guide from the official DCA website to make sure you are always updated.
• Develop a deep understanding of concepts and work with various examples.
• You may not have to mug-up the structures of Files and commands but make sure not to get confused between similar keywords.
• Remember, Practice… Practice… Practice! And once you are done with that, do some more practice!
• Keep track of updates rolled out with newer versions of Docker to make sure you don’t get yourself in a hit-miss situation with outdated knowledge.

The DON’Ts:

• Don’t rely on any online source claiming to be the sure-shot or full-fledged guide to DCA exam.
• It is always useful to go through various sources to learn the basics of Docker and get some practice insight but when it comes to exam preparation, do not prioritize any content over Docker documentation.
• Don’t forget to check-out exam-specific instructions and perform all necessary compatibility checks.
• Don’t take practice for granted!

  We are looking forward to seeing you inside the course.
