Pearson Unveils New Certification Exam Prep Tool

Wednesday January 7, 2009
When you're preparing for a certification exam you can never have too many tools. Hands on experience is always the best teacher. Taking classes, whether at a physical location or via the Web, can be valuable a well. Many people simply read books on the certification subject(s) and try to train themselves on the subject matter. All of that is great until the exam is right around the corner.

When the exam is around the corner it is too late to learn the material really. However, it is a perfect time to drill the material and cement it in your brain to ensure you can recall it in the blink of an eye while taking the exam. There are a variety of books, software applications, and web sites dedicated to exam prep and exam cram type materials. Pearson Publishing announced that they are adding a new tool to the certification exam-taker's arsenal.

CertFlashcardsOnline.com will provide a browser-based flashcard engine that users can access from desktops, laptops, or even mobile devices, enabling them to do some exam cramming anytime and anywhere. “In today's environmentally conscious digital society, it makes sense for certification candidates to use electronic flash cards instead of those made from paper,” said Tim Warner, Product Editor for Cert Flash Cards Online and host of the InformIT Certification Reference Guide. “Most folks carry a laptop or a Web browser-enabled mobile phone or PDA, so why not save some trees by using the online Cert Flash Cards?”

You can learn more about the site and the certifications Pearson currenty has available by visiting CertFlashCardsOnline.com
