Note on CWEA Certifications

One note about certification preparation classes –  CWEA is careful to separate our training activities from our certification program to ensure no conflicts of interest exist. Any educational material or training are designed to prepare candidates for an exam are developed and conducted by individuals that do not have access to the exams.

It’s important to keep in mind one single class cannot prepare someone for a certification exam. Download the handbook, use the knowledge gap analysis tool and read up on the topics you want to improve on. This can include taking a certification preparation class or two on OWEN.
