Do you have a CCA for XenApp 5? If the answer is yes, you are well-positioned to advance to a brand new level of Citrix certification!

The Citrix Certified Advanced Administratorâ„¢ (CCAA) for Citrix XenApp 5 for Windows Server 2008 is a new designation to recognize advanced administrator-level specialists who possess Citrix XenApp expertise. Because the CCAA builds upon the CCA for XenApp 5 foundation, current CCAs for XenApp 5 are only two requirements short of earning this credential.

The CCAA allows IT professionals to validate technical skills required for the implementation of advanced XenApp 5 for Windows Server 2008 features and perform additional functions including monitoring, optimizing and troubleshooting*.

To advance your CCA for XenApp 5 to a CCAA, follow the steps below:

Step 1 - Complete training course: CXA-300-1I Advanced Administration for Citrix XenApp 5.0 for Windows Server 2008

Step 2 - Pass certification Exam: A08 Advanced Administration for Citrix XenApp 5.0 for Windows Server 2008

If you have any questions, please visit www.citrixeducation.com or contact training@citrix.com.

*Note: Content in the CCAA for XenApp 5 certification training and exam is based on the Windows Server 2008 version of the product. Therefore, previous experience in and/or knowledge of Windows Server 2008 is highly recommended.

      That's true. The course is a requirement for the CCAA title but not for the CCEE title, there you need only the A08 exam. Confusing? Yes.

    However, the citrix certification portal says the following is needed. It is not talking of  CXA-300-1I Advanced Administration for Citrix XenApp 5.0 for Windows Server 2008

      To receive credit for completing course CXA-300-1I Advanced Administration for Citrix XenApp 5.0 for Windows Server 2008, students must use the voucher (found in the CXA-300-1I course manual) to launch the CXA-300S-SR online student resources on the learning management site. The online student resources must be launched to obtain class credit, which is why they are listed as required. The CXA-300S-SR online student resources can be found in the learning management site at www.citrix.com/elearninglogin

        Hi Keira,

        Could you please specify how to find the CXA-300S-SR online student resources at www.citrix.com/elearninglogin. I tried to searched for the training and I wasn't able to find it. Is this certain training available only after entering voucher ID which you should get with CXA-300-1l?

        Any reason why was the path to reach CCAA changed?

        How to obtain this training is quite confusing, no informations about this at certmanager...  come on guys\ladies clear this up!

          Hi Andy -

          The CXA-300-SR online student resources are not searchable within the learning management site; they are only associated with instructor-led training CXA-300-1I Advanced Administration for Citrix XenApp 5.0 for Windows Server 2008.

          The steps below describe how to launch the CXA-300S-SR online student resources and obtain credit for attending instructor-led training course CXA-300-1I Advanced Administration for Citrix XenApp 5.0 for Windows Server 2008.

          1. Attend instructor-led training course CXA-300-1I Advanced Administration for Citrix XenApp 5.0 for Windows Server 2008
          2. Locate the CXA-300-SR voucher ID number in the CXA-300-1I Advanced Administration for Citrix XenApp 5.0 for Windows Server 2008 course manual
          3. Login to www.citrix.com/elearninglogin
          4. Enter the CXA-300-SR voucher ID number in the e-learning voucher redemption field found on the homepage
          5. Launch CXA-300-SR online student resources

          Only after launching CXA-300-SR online student resources will a student obtain credit for instructor led training course CXA-300-1I.

          If you have further questions, please feel free to e-mail them to training@citrix.com

          Thanks!

            Hi all,

            Where about (page or covers) does the CXA-300-SR voucher ID appears in the manual?

            I can not find it.

            Regards

              Hi Rafael,

              The CXA-300 online student resources voucher appears on the very last page of the Volume 2 manual, just inside the back cover. The whole page is dedicated to the online student resources voucher and how to redeem it. Hope this helps.
