The Primo VE Administration Certification Process
Validate your knowledge
Learn and understand how to apply the advanced configuration options available in Primo VE and validate your knowledge against a benchmark of proficiency for Primo VE administration. Earning a professional credential prepares you to be the go-to expert for your library staff, and to serve as a primary point of contact for our Ex Libris Support team.
What's covered on the exam
The certification test includes roughly 14 questions from across the different facets of Primo VE configuration: external data sources, views configuration, label configuration, search configuration, local fields, delivery, and user interface customization. Once it is launched, you have 60 minutes to complete the exam and obtain a minimum passing score of 90%.
How to prepare
We strongly advise that you complete the Primo VE Essentials prior to the Primo VE Administration Certification, as the Essentials training provides a foundational understanding of the basics of Primo VE functionality. The certification course covers content across the major functional areas. It contains short, focused, demo-based workflows. Practice is highly recommended, and you are advised to use your institution's Primo VE sandbox as your primary learning environment.
Each e-learning session page links to relevant Knowledge Center assets and printable handouts containing narration notes. These are great post-training resources meant to supplement and enhance the learning experience.
