In this article, I will introduce the ** procedure to take the exam **, which is considered to be the most difficult </ font> (really?) To take the Java Silver exam. This time, I will explain up to "go to the test site and make a reservation for the test to be taken".

There are many explanations about the exam contents and study methods, so please do something about yourself.

Things necessary

I have what I need to take the exam.

Get an account

Two accounts are required for this exam.

** 1. Account for Pearson VUE, a computer test management service 2. The account (profile) of Oracle, which is the source of Java rights **

1 is needed to book the exam and 2 is needed to see the exam results.

Obtaining a Pearson VUE exam account

What you need: email address, home or work address and contact phone number

Required to take the exam.

From Top Page ** Registration / Exam Reservation > ** Candidate Home> Exam Program > " Oracle | Oracle Certification Exam ** "choose, Alternatively, start creating an account with " Create Account **" from Oracle Certification.

・ Agree to the privacy policy You cannot create an account unless you select the check box that scrolls to the bottom.

-Oracle Testing ID If you have never taken an exam such as Java, please select "No". Even if you have forgotten your ID, you will not be able to see your past exam history.

・ Name and address (or work address) Enter in English at first. Japanese registration for smooth authentication and confirmation will appear a little later in the registration step.

・ Oracle Partner Network Probably your company is not included. At least when you're looking at a guide like this, it's probably not an official (or in-house) guide.

・ User name, password, secret question Be careful of the cover. It's very easy to forget, so it's a good idea to keep a good record. The password must be at least 8 characters, including all uppercase and lowercase letters. Also, if you enter "null" in the answer to the secret question, an error will occur, so you should stop it. (1 loss)

Get oracle profile

What you need: name, email address, occupation

Required to access the site for viewing test results. You can create an account by selecting ** View Accounts **> ** Create an Account ** from the Top Page.

·Notes Please be aware that the department / job title and work phone number are required. Also, if you fail in the initial authentication of the "site for viewing test results" described later, it will take a lot of time and effort, so make sure that your password is even more difficult to forget than usual.

Account verification

When you receive each registration confirmation email, authenticate it and registration is complete. Please log in once for each.

Please note that the ID entered during registration is used to log in to the Pearson VUE site, and the registered email address is used to sign in to the Oracle profile. In particular, if you make a mistake in the latter in the initial authentication of CertView, which will be described later, it may take time and effort.

Exam appointment

Book your exam from the Pearson VUE site. Sign in from the Oracle Certification Exam Page. Enter the ID you entered when you registered for "Username". Even if you forget it, it should be written in the verification email.

From the home screen, go to ** Show Exam ** and type "** 808-JPN **". The " ** 1Z0-808-JPN: Java SE 8 Programmer I ** </ font>" that appears is the Japanese version of the Java SE 8 Silver exam. ** Please note that the name Silver is not in the exam. ** ** Some people do not have "-JPN", but it seems that they are not recognized as qualifications in Japan, so be careful there as well.

The registered address is included in the default, so select up to 3 places that you can go to while searching or looking at the map.

Authenticate the test result confirmation site

** Do this at least a week after you create your Oracle profile. ** </ font>

Log in with your Oracle profile from the Oracle credential system, Certview Site (http://certview.oracle.com), and have your Pearson VUE exam account with your Oracle Certification Exam ID (Oracle Test ID) is linked and the test results are linked. Please note that if this initial authentication fails several times, you will need to contact Oracle again. </ font> Also, it takes time for the data of the Oracle account to be reflected in CertView, so it seems that it is necessary to open the number of days after creating the Oracle account.

manner

Sign in from Pearson VUE's Oracle site and jump to your home for Oracle. Copy or make a note of the "Oracle Testing ID" under your sign-in name. This is also described in the exam reservation email.

Sign in to the CertView site with your Oracle profile and authenticate for the first time from there. The caveat here is, again and again, that your username is your email address.

It's done when the cooperation and the initial authentication are completed. Let's wait for the exam.

Exam day

Take the required ID to the test site. Make sure you are at the venue 15 minutes before your appointment, as you will need to prove your identity at the reception.

After that, I have taken the exam. Please log in to CertView at a later date to see the results.

This is the end of this article. Have a good test life.
