Are these Official now @Mark Takata (Adobe)? https://cfsummit.adobeevents.com/

Yes, this is "official". Also we're shipping Seattle down to Vegas (sorry about the image lol, I think it was part of the template).

Not to grammar police much, but "For the first time in 2 years, our 10th edition of the Abode ColdFusion Summit will be in-person!" 😂 It's been at least 3 years since the last in-person 10th edition.

Sorry - I just was reading and my brain went there, so I had to rib

We corrected that.

Is the certificate program different than the "ColdFusion Specialist" certification from a few years ago?
m
Carl, yes. The Adobe Certified Professional: Adobe ColdFusion cert is a totally different, MUCH more difficult and comprehensive certification than the CF Specialist that you and I got that year. Myself, Nolan and Dave F + the CF engineering team, Elishia and Kishore all spent a week together building the new one and it is HARD. I highly recommend it as a test of your skills, I guarantee everyone will learn something new.

Is it still a mostly full-day lecture followed by an exam?
Or is there preparatory stuff you do before the certification day?
m
Yes, but there's also over 100 hours of video to go over before the 1 day lecture + cert. So you watch videos, sit in class, then take the exam there. It is no joke, definitely challenging, but super satisfying to pass.

Plus you get access to those videos for a year, which is nice for going back and reviewing things down the line.
