[SBE] SBE Certification Exam Prep Reading Material

[Taylor, William W.]

Chris is right. The CERT previews coupled with a good review of specific topics I have chosen to review in the NAB Engineering Handbook have always been very helpful in my preparations. Tying that in with my own experience has helped as long as I was willing to verify that which I believed I had learned was correct. Studying for exams always helps me discover that everything I think I know is not 100% correct.

Hi John!

It's kind of hard to really give a good recommendation without knowing what your skill and comfort level is now.  For example, I had already had all kinds of training and experience with networking and computers in a broadcast environment, so I just brushed up on my basics and had no problem with the exam.  I would suggest investigating what the recommended books contain and use that as sort of a guide to the topics being covered.  Then at the very least, brush up on those topics that need attention.

Purchasing Cert Preview is also a good idea since you'll get a real good idea of the types of questions that will come up.

Maybe someone else will have a good recommendation - most of all I wanted to wish you luck with the exam!

-Chris
