Is the a Cert Prep Template?

Sherry Fox

Is there a template that currently exists that is designed for Certification Prep? Something that would allow me to see HOW things worked, and then I could create myself. I am a visual person, so seeing a formula based on my sheets is how I understand how it works, as opposed to the standard syntax of a formula.

I know the Formulas template exists, and that would be helpful, but I need something that contains all the features I need to study for before I take my certification exam. Any ideas?

Hi @Sherry Fox

Have you access to this page at all on the Smartsheet Website?

https://smartu.smartsheet.com/page/core-product-certification

It has lots of preparation materials and resources there.

I hope this helps

Kind regards

@Debbie Sawyer ,

Yes I have already reviewed some of those items. I am currently reading the Exam Resources Page and it would be so awesome if there was a template that was designed to go along with each item. That way I could see how these items looked, and then recreate on my own. I have done many of these things in various project, but obviously not all. I want to be sure I am fully prepared for the exam.

The only other resource I know is this one:

https://www.smartsheet.com/marketplace/template-sets/formula-handbook

Have you downloaded this? I think this might be the Formulas Template that you mentioned...

Sorry I can't be any more help...

Good luck with the prep.

Kind regards

Yes, I download that Formula Template as soon as it was announced. It is a great help with the formulas, but there are other parts of the exam that are NOT formula-related. As I am going through the resources, I realized this at the 2nd item under the Sheets section. It is Adding Images to Grid View. I have never done this, nor needed to do this. But since this is on the exam, that is when I thought an "Exam Prep" Template would be a great idea. I could then see how everything works, and then replicate it on my own within the workbook, and ensure my results are correct. And Debbie, I greatly appreciate your help.

@Trish Dillon ,

I did not know about that page, I just added it to my bookmark folder for Cert Prep. Thanks so much. I want to do the certification,. I just have no time to prep due to work and real life. If I had PTO (I am just a contractor), I would take some PTO to devote to focusing on Smartsheet Cert Prep. I just sent you a LinkedIn connection request, thanks again!!! 🦊
