Exam Track
The TIA CTP validates the knowledge and abilities of individuals with at least nine months of experience in network support or administration
TIA CTP Exam
The exam tests three domain areas:
- Data Networking
- Telephony Networking
- Converged Technologies
The CTP exam candidate is responsible for achieving a passing score on the CTP exam. CTP exam items are based upon CTP exam objectives. All deliveries of the CTP exam will be subject to the following:
- Each delivery of the exam includes a random selection of 65 CTP exam items and six survey questions at the end of the exam
The examination period is 75 minutes.
To achieve a passing score on the TT0-101 CTP exam, candidates must:
Correctly answer at least 49 of the 65 exam items.
Exam items offer three to four solutions or options. Exam candidates must select the one best solution for each item.
Upon completion of the CTP exam, candidates will receive a score report from the testing center. Candidates who pass the CTP exam are CTP certified by TIA and will receive a CTP certification.
What's Included
