I'd go for the industry SNIA cert rather than a manufacturer specific one if I was you.

Best place to obtain materials is &quot;PowerLink&quot;. &nbsp;In addition to the white papers and product documents, they also have a practice exam for thre assocaite certification.<br />
<br />
EMC has re-vamped the certification paths, so you may want to take another look at the tracks avaiable. &nbsp;I believe they have an associate level, and then a specialist gtrack now.

EMC Certification?

The term "Backup" means the methods and processes involved to copy computer data (system data as well as application data) to media other than the ones where the data originally live (disk, tape, optical, cloud). "Restore" in turn means the methods and processes involved in data recovery, i. e., bringing back copied computer data to their original location. Backup/Restore primarily serves as a means of protection against data loss, be it due to disaster, corruption or sabotage. It can also be used for recovering data from an earlier point in time and even for cloning machines or applications. There is a wide variety of backup/restore software available, from expensive commercial products to free or open source tools.

Storage Software

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.
