[bsdcan-announce] BSDA beta exam at BSDCan

[Dru]

Hi folks,

BSDCan will be one of the locations for taking the BSDA beta exam. The 
announcement and how to register is here:

And details about what to expect during the beta are here:

http://www.bsdcertification.org/index.php?NAV=News&Item=pr044

This is a sysadmin exam--if you have existing sysadmin skills on BSD you 
can assist the BSD Certification Group in collecting psychometric data by 
participating in the beta. The data collected will be most useful if you 
review the exam objectives and brush up on what's rusty before taking the 
exam.

There will be a 3 hour time slot available on both the Friday and Saturday
of BSDCan. However it shouldn't take more than 1-2 hours to take the exam. 
Since you're paying to see great talks and I'm proctoring (and also want 
to see great talks) we're looking for timeslots that least impact the talk 
schedule. Some suggestions are:

8:00 - 11:00 (Friday only as I'm talking Saturday morning)

11:00 - 2:00 (we will save your boxed lunch for you)

4:00 - 7:00 (you may be a bit late for the evening festivities)

We're open to other suggestions regarding time.

Cheers,

Dru
