WHY CompTIA CDIA+ CERTIFICATION?
CDIA+ - Certified Document Imaging Architech
Increase your market worth and skills in the document imaging industry with CompTia's CDIA+ credential. Datavault was one of the first companies to offer comprehensive computer based training for the CDIA+ and we continue to provide our customers with the tools necessary to gain the knowledge required to obtain this highly regarded certification.
While businesses
continue to turn to electronic document management solutions, it becomes obvious that a certified expert in document imaging can open the door to a vast quantity of business opportunities in electronic commerce. CompTIA's Certified Document Imaging Architech (CDIA+) certification is an industry-recognized credential that represents an individual's proficiency in the skills necessary to excel in the document imaging industry.
CompTIA introduced the CDIA certification 1995, recently
upgrading the title to CDIA+ to follow their current naming convention. CompTIA pulled from the most brilliant minds in the document-imaging arena for a global perspective of necessary, required elements related to the industry. These document management industry leaders, consisting of systems vendors, distributors, and consulting organizations, created a technical certification that would enhance, as well as support, careers in the document management industry. The CDIA+ certification is
intended to raise the standard of the document imaging profession and increase professional credibility for individuals who achieve CDIA+ status.
The CDIA+ certification covers the fundamentals and procedures required of a proficient imaging solutions provider. The CDIA+ exam covers competency in areas established by an assembly of document management experts. The areas of content integrated in the current exam include the following subjects: gather business requirements, analyze
business process, recommend solution, design solution, and plan for the implementation. For Technicians we have the PDI+ Certification.
The certification knowledge is distributed somewhat evenly throughout the content areas compared to many current certifications. This is further evidence of the CDIA+'s validity in representing a well-rounded skill set in the document management industry.
CDIA+ Certification Examination Objectives
The new CompTIA CDIA+ exam will cover the following domains:
Gather Business Requirements 25%
Analyze Business Process 22%
Recommend Solution 16%
Design Solution 24%
Plan for Implementation 13%
Introduction
CompTIA's CDIA+ certification is an internationally recognized credential acknowledging competency and
professionalism in the document imaging / document management industry. CDIA+ candidates possess critical knowledge of all major areas and technologies used to plan, design and specify an imaging system.
To achieve CDIA+ certification, the examinee must take and pass the exam within the specified time (90minutes). The skills and knowledge measured by this examination are derived from an industry-wide and worldwide job task analysis, which was validated through a survey. The results of
the survey are used in weighting the domains and ensuring that the weighting is representative of the relative importance of that content to the job requirements of a document imaging professional with twelve to eighteen months on-the-job experience.
NOTE: This examination blueprint for the CDIA+ examination includes the weighting and test objectives.Example topics and concepts are included to clarify the test objectives and should not be construed as acomprehensive list of all the content
of this examination.
The table below lists the domains measured by this examination and the extent to which they are represented in the examination.
