Preparation
There are no prerequisites to take this exam but it is recommended that an individual take the Implementing Red Hat JBoss BRMS (AD465), Red Hat Decision Manager and Process Automation Manager for Business Users (AD371) and Red Hat Decision Manager and Red Hat Process Automation Manager 7.0 for Developers (AD373) courses.
Please note that these courses provide a good introduction to Decision Manager and Process Automation Manager, but they do not offer the level of in-depth, hands-on experience with Decision Manager required for this exam. We strongly recommend that all exam candidates take the time to practice using Decision Manager before attempting the exam. Additional tutorials, videos, and practice material can be found on the web, including at Eric D. Schabell’s site and the Drools project site and documentation
repository.
