How can I register in the Salesforce webassessor?
I was trying to register in webassessor.com for the first time for my Salesforce Admin certification and I got an option to pick as below
SFDC Employee
SFDC Customer
SFDC Partner
Which one should I opt for? Also have an option Verification Opt-In: Yes or No to choose
Is there any significance to this?
I am a newbie and don't have any Salesforce work experience, I am just learning it Myself and going to take the certification for a career change. Can someone please help me?
Choose customers initially to register in Salesforce webassessor. Partner is for special circumstances like a company that is an ISV or consulting partner for example, and employee is for an employee of Salesforce directly. If they ask for a company name just list n/a for now. Later on if you become a consultant the company name field will become important for bubbling your certifications up on the company's AppExchange profile.
The opt in for verification is in reference to the verification site (http://certification.salesforce.com/verification). If you opt-in, you'll be publicly visible on the site if someone enters your details.
Training related additional info: Make sure to check out Trailhead if you haven't yet. That is an indispensable resource for learning. Additionally the documentation online at developer.force.com is of course very useful, particularly for getting specifics of a class or method.
