Hi Pradeep,

You may be interested in our book "QlikView 11 for Developers" (QlikView 11 for Developers - QlikView Book) I've heard from quite a few developers who've used it to successfully prepare for their QlikView 11 Developer Certification.

Kind regards,

Hi Khan,

Congratulations for the exam.

1) I thought it was a quizz. it should be quite difficult to answer A, B or C for a requirement,  data modeling ...

2) The questions on interfaces are therefore very few (around a quarter !!)
