Overview
To protect the integrity and value of The Open Group certification programs, all candidates must adhere to strict exam confidentiality requirements. Sharing or discussing exam content in any form is prohibited.
Confidentiality Requirements
When you take an exam, you agree to the terms of The Open Group Exam Conduct and Security Policy. This agreement explicitly forbids:
- Sharing or discussing exam questions or content
- Talking about the exam with colleagues, friends, or study groups
- Posting or discussing exam material on social media, forums, or online communities
- Any attempt to disclose, reproduce, or distribute exam content
Consequences of Sharing Exam Content
If you are found to have shared or discussed exam content—whether in person or online—the following actions may be taken:
- You will be disqualified from taking any exam required for any The Open Group certification
- Any existing certifications may be revoked (decertification)
- Future eligibility for all The Open Group certification exams may be permanently removed
These consequences apply whether the violation is discovered immediately or at a later date.
