Hi @fhusain,
Great to be a part of this community!
My name is Lavanya Sankaran, and I’m based in Tamil Nadu, India. I’ve been using Adobe Analytics for about 2.5 years and am excited to deepen my expertise and pursue certification. I’m looking forward to learning from every member of our cohort.
Hey @LavanyaSa Nice to hear from you! Please feel free to ask any questions or share any queries you might have. I'll start posting the toolkit shortly via this thread.
Hey There! Hope you all are doing well.
As we work towards our Business Practitioner Expert certification, we will focus on four main sections, each with a specific emphasis on the final exam. Here's the overview of the course:
Section 1: Understanding Analytics in the Adobe Cloud Ecosystem (10%)
Section 2: Reporting and dashboarding for projects (30%)
Section 3: Segmentation and calculated metrics (22%)
Section 4: General tool knowledge and troubleshooting (12%)
Section 5: Administration (10%)
Furthermore, I'm sharing the main location for study, the Exam Prep Guide - Link. You can explore this resource, which will be beneficial in the upcoming weeks. We will continue to add more content to it and will also be posting weekly quizzes.
If you have any questions, please feel free to add them here so that we can all gain insights.

Hey Everyone!
For this week, please focus on Section 1, Understanding Analytics in the Adobe Experience Cloud Ecosystem. The goal of this first section is to help you:
To help you get ready, I'll be posting 1-2 questions every week, and you can all have a go at answering to test your knowledge.
Here's the first question for this week.
Q. Which of these report would help you see users (group of users) sharing common characteristics over a specified period?
1. Fallout
2. Flow report
3. Cohort Analysis
4. Segment Comparison
I am looking forward to hearing from you all!
@prasanthi @Cyrus_Chan @Marilia_Pinho @umishra @lavanya_Sankaran @roshang @SupriyaDh
3.Cohort Analysis
Correct @LavanyaSa
A cohort is a group of people sharing common characteristics over a specified period. Cohort Analysis is useful, for example, when you want to learn how a cohort engages with a brand. You can easily spot changes in trends, then respond accordingly.
You can find more use case here: https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/analytics/analyze/analysis-workspace/visualizations/cohor...
From Analysis Workspace section, most of the questions will be related to the visualization. It is important to understand the use cases for each. Most importantly, when should we use flow, fallout, histogram, etc.
Try going through each mentioned here - https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/analytics/analyze/analysis-workspace/visualizations/freef...
Also, check what settings are available for each, such as the bucket size for the histogram. Don't forget to check out Summary Change and Summary Number.
Hey @prasanthi @Cyrus_Chan @Marilia_Pinho @umishra @lavanya_Sankaran @roshang @SupriyaDh
Hope you're well!
As we proceed further, let's move to Section 2 for this week, which covers the following and will cover the majority of the questions :
Section 2: Reporting and dashboarding for projects (30%)

Hey @prasanthi @Cyrus_Chan @Marilia_Pinho @umishra @lavanya_Sankaran @roshang @SupriyaDh
Here's the quiz for this week:
Question:
You want to analyze the conversion rate of users who added items to their cart but only if they first interacted with your site's blog content during the same visit. How would you structure a segment to capture this audience?
Options:
A) Use a Visit segment container with a sequential segment to INCLUDE users who have a page view for blog pages and THEN triggered the "Cart Addition" event
B) Create a Hit segment container that includes users who viewed the blog pages and triggered the "Cart Addition" event in the same hit.
C) Use a Visitor segment container that includes users who viewed any blog pages at any time and later triggered the "Cart Addition" event.
D) Create a Visit segment container that first captures users who triggered the "Cart Addition" event, and then apply a separate segment to filter those who also visited the blog pages at any point.

Hi @fhusain ,
I hope you're doing great.
My answer is option "A" - Use a Visit segment container that includes users who triggered the "Cart Addition" event, with a nested Page View condition for blog pages in the same visit.

Hey @LavanyaSa Hope you're well!
I have updated the options today. Can you please go through them once and let me know if you still think the correct option is A?

Hi @fhusain
"I'm pretty sure I'm sticking with the correct answer, and here’s why I believe it’s A:
So, my choice is option A.
In the event that it’s incorrect, I'd be grateful for feedback or guidance on where I might have misunderstood.
Hey @LavanyaSa, your approach is correct, and indeed, A is the correct answer.
The best part was how you ruled out each option. C and D indeed didn't fit the requirement, so we know that these two can never be the correct answer, then we are only left with A and B, and you correctly mentioned it’s uncommon for both a page view and an event like 'Cart Addition' to occur within the same hit, then likewise we can rule out B as well.
Great work!!!
Since you might be already exploring Section 3, try to explore the Segment comparison panel -> https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/analytics/analyze/analysis-workspace/panels/segment-compa... basically, try to learn what difference score means as it's highly important.
