How to gain practical experience?

Hi everyone, 
I would like to get certified in Adobe Customer Journey Analytics and therefore I already did several courses. However, the gained knowledge won´t help in any way if taking a certification. 
For getting certified you need to try things out, do some tests, use the software in practice not just theory. Salesforce therefore offers sandbox environments, but I can´t find anything comparable from Adobe. 

So my question is, how should I get certified, when not having access to a payd online environment? 
--> tutorials and webinars won´t help either I guess...

 

Thanks in advance

Simon

Hi @simonb20487028 

you can apply for access to a CJA sandbox here: https://business.adobe.com/resources/customer-journey-analytics-sandbox.html

 

Note though, that unfortunately, this merely gives you access to preconfigured dummy data views, but won't give you any admin access to configure Connections nor Data Views. So, you can practically only play around with the new visualizations, but not use derived fields or similar that require admin access.

 

This is a limitation that many of us who would be interested in deepening their experience with CJA are facing (maybe someone from Adobe reads this).

I have flagged this many times, unfortunately without success.
