About CertArea
CertArea is an independent study resource for IT certification exams. It has a free practice test and a plain exam guide for 374 exams from 54 vendors.
What you get
- A free practice test for every exam: up to 30 questions, each with the answer and a written explanation.
- An exam guide: fee, duration, passing score, topics and retirement date, with a link to the official page.
- No account and no email wall for any of the free material.
- A paid question bank for many exams, as a PDF, an online practice exam, or both, when you want more questions.
How the questions are made
Questions are original practice material written against each vendor's published exam objectives. They are not copies of live exam content. The full process is on the methodology page.
How we keep exams current
Each exam page shows when its details were last checked against the official vendor page. New and beta exams are added when the vendor publishes an outline. Retired exams stay listed with the exam that replaces them, on the retired and retiring exams page.
CertArea since 2008
CertArea.com first went online as an exam preparation site in 2008. It was rebuilt in 2026 around free practice tests and current exams. Links to the old pages lead to the matching page on the new site.
