Exam Purpose: The ArcGIS Pro Associate Exam tests candidates’ experience applying ArcGIS concepts and processes to workflows. Qualified candidates should have 2 or more years of applied experience using ArcGIS. Candidates should be skilled at using ArcGIS to manage, analyze, and manipulate geospatial data.
Target Candidate Audience:
The ArcGIS Pro Associate exam is intended for candidates with intermediate level of ArcGIS experience and who use it to perform complex workflows and analysis regularly.
Description of Qualified Candidate:
The ArcGIS Pro Associate exam measures a candidate’s mastery of ArcGIS concepts. It is recommended that the candidate have 2 or more years of applied experience using ArcGIS. Qualified candidates should demonstrate proficiency of ArcGIS concepts and recommended practices. The candidate should be able to implement principles of data management, performing analysis, editing 2D and 3D features, mapping and visualization, and sharing content across ArcGIS. Passing the exam provides an opportunity for candidates to validate their technical expertise in implementing ArcGIS Pro workflows. ARCGIS PRO ASSOCIATE 2101

SKILLS MEASURED Candidates should fully prepare for testing using the exam content sections below as a checklist to identify possible gaps between their knowledge and the skills measured by the exam. The relative weight illustrates the approximate size of each section. It is recommended that focused preparation should be in areas where any knowledge gaps are found.
Data Management 34%
• Compare and contrast various types of vector and raster datasets supported in ArcGIS • Choose and apply an appropriate coordinate system to preserve the desired spatial properties • Given a scenario, determine how to manage data in a geodatabase, feature class, or table • Apply spatial and attribute data validation • Given a scenario, determine the appropriate existing geodatabase elements to use • Manage raster data, tabular data, and vector data • Manage metadata and item details
Data Manipulation 19%
• Use ArcGIS Pro editing functionality to create, modify, and delete 2D and 3D data • Resolve the root cause of a data alignment problem • Given a scenario, apply a query • Troubleshoot data anomalies with tabular and vector data
Visualization 13% • Identify how to control the coordinate system and geographic transformation in ArcGIS Pro • Manage layer properties • Determine how to visualize temporal, ranged, or 3D data
Sharing 11% • Identify how to export data, maps, and scenes to different formats • Choose how to share content across ArcGIS • Determine how to create and manage map layouts and map series
Analysis & Geoprocessing 23%
• Compare the functionality of table joins and relates, relationship classes, and spatial joins • Given a scenario, determine the appropriate geoprocessing tool to use • Given a scenario, use tasks, batch processing, models, or scripts to execute a complex workflow • Identify analysis tools available from the connected portal • Apply raster functions for raster and image processing
