Exam information: http://www.citrix.com/English/SS/education/exams.asp

The Citrix website lists the exam price as $100. I checked the Prometric website and all the listed exams except 614 and 456 were $150 each. 614 and 456 were $300 each.

Originally exams were only available at Prometric centers, but it was recently announced that they would also be available at VUE centers.

there is a link for Citrix Exam Release, Discontinuation and Retirement Schedule. Information on Exam/Certification discontinuation and retirement can be found here: http://www.citrix.com/English/ss/education/feature.asp?contentID=25972

Training is availbe through CALCs, Citrix Authorized Learning Centers.
It isn’t advertised very well, but you can purchase the course books from the calc without taking the class. Around $300 per book.

————————————————————-

Books:
- Official course books from CALCs
- PDF documenation from the support website: http://support.citrix.com/docs/
- There is an exam cram for PS 3.0 and 4.0. Not sure I would want to use an Exam Cram that covers 2 products.
- Old books – there are older books floating around for the MetaFrame 1.8, XP, and 3.0 exams for both the CCA and the CCEA. Don’t buy these they are worthless as study guides.
Your best resource is the documentation. If you can get them the course books will help.

Misc:
Brian Madden has a site with a lot of good information: www.brainmadden.com He has a couple of books and does an unofficial training class. There is an eLearning DVD available of the class. It is not geared towards the certification, but wold be a good resource to have.
You should have a good understanding of Windows server before working on the CCA.
