What does the Splunk exam development process look like?

Before you go through the exam development process, My partner and I had no hint about what happened to power the scenes. You will find quite a few steps that are involved from primary conception to exam development. At an advanced, the process looks like this type of thing:

1. 1. The exam blueprint/outline is developed.
2. 2. Some sort of team of topic experts is set up to develop the exam content. This kind involves Splunk employees familiar with test topics, the coaches who develop and teach the associated course content, and external third-party topic experts (e.g., SplunkTrust members).
3. 3. The exam blueprint is broken down into writing assignments for each question writer. Each exam writer will generally work on 15–20 questions for an exam.
4. 4. During the writing process, the test development team fulfills regularly reviews all the questions which have been written by team members. Every question and answer choice is examined, discussed/debated, and modified as appropriate.
5. 5. The second group of subject matter experts reviews the questions developed by the question writing team, making additional revisions as needed.
6. 6. Questions are reviewed by technical writers to ensure appropriate formatting and adherence to Splunk’s style guidelines.
7. 7. A final review of the questions is performed.
8. 8. The exam enters a beta testing phase, where eligible candidates take the exam. Scores are not immediately available at this time.
9. 9. As soon as a huge enough sample size has been used for the beta exam, the performance of each question is reviewed. Questions that perform poorly are removed from the last exam form. It really is at this point that the moving score is determined, and beta exam participants are informed of their pass/fail status.
10. 10. The exam is moved from beta to a final release form; candidates now receive scores immediately.
11. 11. Examinations are reviewed and updated several times annually. New questions are written, and they enter a beta testing process where they may be incorporated into exams however, not counted in the rating until a similar review process takes place.

From this article you can see, that there’s very little more to examination development than somebody simply writing something and putting this on the examination. My involvement within the process at this time has focused close to steps 2–4 and 11 of the particular above outline, plus I’ll be operating with the certification team on stage 9 for that Splunk Certification Admin examination in 2021.
