I was wondering, what kind of questions/excercises you can expect for this certification.
Other question: Can this already be done online?

Sjors,

Its multiple choice questions regarding stuff you have already covered on the course and it is done online.

Currently it's only available for people who've attended the course. Later we'll open up for others. The reason is that the test consists of two parts:

1) A multiple choice quiz. You get ten random questions and you'll need to give 8 out of ten correct. If you've been to the courses that will qualify because you've already done part two below
2) Solve and submit two exercises. You'll get to exercises like "build a member sign up form" or "create an actionhandler that add a log item on the document affected". You need to build those and submit them for a manual review. If they're done correctly you'll get certified.

#2 is what's keeping us from opening it up to everybody as we need to make sure that all exercises are easy to understand and to make sure that you can download materials for it.

We're hoping to have this ready after 3.1 release.

Look here for inspiration on the topics:

It's only an 8-9 hour drive, so before you get to the airport, check in, wait, fly, wait, check out, get on the bus, you could easily be there in a car ;-)

Regarding the level 2 certification.

I attended the level 2 course last summer but never got around to do take the certification test. If I log in to the umbraco site I can take the on-line test. But the information is unclear what happens should someone fail the test. Can the test be taken again? Not that I expect to fail but it would be nice to know beforehand...

Is it me or umbraco? Umbraco Certified Professional Level 2.

You have three attempts to take the online certification test. I'm confident that you'll pass in first take though ;)
