What the Course Entails and Exam Details

This examination evaluates your proficiency across the fundamental pillars of the Vlocity Platform.

The core competencies tested include a thorough understanding of Vlocity’s DataRaptors, Omniscripts, Integration Procedures, and Vlocity Calculation Matrices.

You will need to demonstrate your ability to configure UI layouts and cards using the Vlocity Interaction Console and Layout components.

A significant portion of the assessment focuses on implementing effective data strategies, ensuring that you can efficiently extract, transform, and load data within the Vlocity ecosystem using the correct tool for the job.

Finally, you must understand how to deploy and manage Vlocity components throughout the development lifecycle, including managing dependencies and using the proper migration tools.

What to Expect in the Final Exam

The final certification exam follows a standard multiple-choice and multiple-select format, designed to test both conceptual knowledge and practical application scenario-based problem-solving.

Candidates are typically required to answer approximately 60 questions within a set time limit, which is generally 105 to 120 minutes.

The specific passing score required can fluctuate slightly but generally lands in the range of 63% to 68%.

It is important to remember that these details can be updated by Salesforce; you must always refer to the official exam guide immediately before registering for the test.

The exam is proctored, meaning it must be taken in a secure environment, either online via remote proctoring software or at a physical testing center, ensuring the integrity of the certification process.

How to Study and Exam Centers

Effective preparation requires a blend of structured learning, hands-on practice, and strategic reinforcement of core concepts.

Your first step should be to thoroughly review the official Salesforce Industries (Vlocity) Exam Guide to understand the breakdown of topics and their relative weighting.

Leverage Salesforce Trailhead, the official learning platform, which offers comprehensive trails and modules specifically curated for the Vlocity Platform Developer path.

Complement this by using high-quality practice tests (like the one this guide supports) to familiarize yourself with the question formats, assess your knowledge gaps, and improve your time management skills.

Nothing beats hands-on experience: create a free Developer Org (a practice environment) to actively build OmniScripts, configure DataRaptors, and run Integration Procedures, reinforcing classroom learning.

When you are ready to take the exam, you have two primary options: first, you can register through the official Webassessor portal and schedule an appointment at an authorized Pearson VUE physical testing center globally.

Alternatively, you can choose the online proctored option, which allows you to take the exam from the comfort of your own home or office, provided you meet the strict technological and environmental security requirements.
