Last chance to give your feedback on IRIS SQL exams

Hello Everyone,

Last month, we asked for input from the IRIS community regarding exam topics for our InterSystems IRIS SQL Specialist and Expert exams. We will close the window for providing feedback on the exam topics on Thursday, August 31st, 2023. Thus, if you would like to have your say in what topics are covered on the exam, this is your last chance!

To show our appreciation for helping us validate our exam design, we will hold a raffle where 15 survey respondents will be chosen to receive a $50 gift card. The gift card is a Tango Card that can be redeemed at any number of online retailers. The raffle is available for US-based, non-InterSystems, employees. VA employees are not eligible.

You can access the surveys here:
