L2 was a lengthy process for me - lengthier than it should have been, in my opinion. There's some fairly confusing content that could use a structural re-write in late S2/early S3 that I got quite stuck on the first time I took it. I was literally opening up to take the L2 test when it was announced the UX version was put into place, so I had to re-start. With the subtle changes throughout, I found it easier to do L1 over again with the new UX, then continue straight through to L2.   The second pass of L2 was probably 50 hours' work for me - it still has the less than ideally written section that I honestly wouldn't have gotten past even that quickly if I hadn't jammed on the same section the first time through. Since I was doing it as time permitted between other real world things, I didn't keep great track of total time.   -Rachel   ... View more

No career movement yet, still looking! Most of my hands-on experience would be in the Process and Data quadrants of the Anaplan Way - My hope is to get more experience with the Model and Deployment sectors in whatever my next consulting role may be.   In the meantime, I'm continuing to skill build by working with a group of former colleagues/friends, each at varying levels in the training cycle, by creating a faux project that we map out as if it were a client job - we've been developing the "customer" and mock use cases (even in a fake company, it took a lot to narrow down the requirements to the Minimum Viable Product list!), and are now working on our UX modeling and building out system tables. It really helps solidify some of the concepts learned in the Academy coursework.   -Rachel Morris ... View more

Thanks, Aaron - I hadn't seen that yet. Once I re-up my UX Level 1, I'll be sure to put myself out there. -R ... View more

Hi, folks - Rachel here. Primarily experienced in the data/ETL end of Anaplan, but I've been out of touch with the product for a few years due to being on non-Anaplan projects. I've always liked the tool and really love some of the changes since I regularly worked in it, so I'm trying to get (and stay) current for possible future client work while job hunting.   Where you are in the world - PNW, USA   What brought you to Anaplan Talent Builder - In addition to taking (and now retaking due to new UX) the certification tests, I'm working with a team of fellow Anaplan users I've worked with on past projects to do a mock project from start to finish to get us all refreshed on our basic skills plus learn incorporate the new UX. It's also helping us remember our general business team responsibilities and helping solidify our PLAN and DISCO comprehension.   One thing you want to learn and how this Group can help you get there - Ultimately I'd like to get my Architect level cert, but feel I need at least one or two more live real-world project as a dev to get there. I'm working on the certs as time permits (never enough). The forums have been helpful with hints when I get stuck. ... View more
