Suggested materials or guides for doing self study for the E20-517 exam?

Hello,

I understand how difficult it is right now to get funding for training and certification.  Preparing for a Specialist level exam does require both education and experience.  One thing I can offer you is a full exam description.  That will help you to understand what is on the certification exam, and what you might need to spend time learning.  Please be careful, though, not to order study or exam prep materials from anyone except EMC as it may invalidate any credential that you receive.

We also have a practice test for this exam. We recommend taking the practice exam once, reviewing the items you missed, and focusing additional learning there.  Passing the practice test isn't a guarantee that you'll pass the exam, but it gives you one indicator.

You can find the exam description and practice test here.

There is a ValPak available, offering an instructor-led or LIVE (remote) class and four eLearning courses to get you fully prepared.  I know the cost is an issue for you/your company, but here's the link just in case.

Please let me know if I've helped.
