Caché Certified Expert Certification
Program Requirements

All candidates must achieve and demonstrate comprehensive technical knowledge of Caché in one or two areas: Application Development or Systems Management, or both. The table below outlines the minimum components (courses or labs) that are required to be considered a Caché Certified Expert. An assessment, usually an examination, is given at the end of each component. Components (and the associated assessments) may be repeated, if necessary, with the permission of the Director of Learning Services.

The Caché Certified Expert course is taught at InterSystems Corporate Headquarters in Cambridge, MA. The directions to the office are available here.

2008 Caché Certified Expert course schedule:

• August 11-15 - System Administration

The 5-day Certified Expert System Manager class costs $2400.

Please contact the Director of Learning Services, Jim Breen, at 617-621-0600 to enroll.

Successful implementation and deployment of a Caché-based application may be required for certification as a Caché Expert. In addition to coursework, candidates may be assigned an application development project, which, depending on the assignment, should take about one week to complete. It would require complex business logic, an appealing user interface, and reporting capability. The candidate's assigned mentor will provide direction and feedback during the assignment and, upon deployment, will review the application and determine that it demonstrates competent knowledge of Caché features.

Candidates will also receive appropriate training in InterSystems' policies and procedures, presenting Caché to new customers, the Caché message, etc.
