This is a just comment but I'm curious to hear the reply from JMP.

1. I'm trying to take these JMP tests (STIPS & DOE) but this material is so outdated. I've spent time opening trouble-tickets but I only have so much time every day. Covid has allowed people to work from home and most firms have move forward faster but JMP seems to be paying attention to something else.

When will you update JMP e-learning Material? STIPS is good but DOE material need to be improved.

2. The JMP books, can you ask the authors to update their books to the latest version? Some of these books use JMP 13 as the reference.

3. The technical documentation is the most current information? Can I skip the books and just read this? I've done all these e-learnings but I know they won't prepare me for these tests.

4. Do you have any documents that show differences between JMP and JMP Pro? Will tests ask about differences?

Where have these been move to?

https://sas.support.com/stephens , these are the data files for the JMP Start Statistics Book

Also, where is the Airplane pdf file and data file for the DOE Online Module? Maybe I missed that.

Edit: DOE Module, I found in resources, sorry.

In the Welcome kit there were file downloads on the page but this had it built into the module:

Finally, can you tell me how badges work here? Have I earned 3 or all of these? I've completed all these courses but I'm not sure if I'm getting credit.

I'm starting to remember this when I did this before. Can you put the Vinyl Factors Files not the Vinyl Data. See screenshot

I remember support sending me the file but I guess the cbt was never updated.

This welcome kit....so much to comment on.

1. Do you think you should make kits for Windows and Mac?

2. Do you think you should make kits for versions of JMP?

3. Do you think you should make kits for different languages of JMP? I did see one for spanish.

In the welcome kit today, I see many videos with various versions of jmp. Version 16 looks compelling but the test I'm trying to take for 15. I need a welcome for that version :) Also, I see windows and mac demos mixed together. I know Windows but Mac I don't know. I know the test will be on Windows.

I did both classes again today. let's see what happens with the badges? How long do they take to post?

Hi @Residentx,

You have earned 4 badges

Those with a date are the ones that have been earned. The others are displayed to show what badges can be earned and encourage members to continue participating.

The "Kit" badges are given to those that have registered for the New User Welcome Kit and the DOE Introductory Kit as the learning platform does not register who completed the kits.

Thank you for the other comments as well. I am reaching out to others who are better positioned to respond.

Regards,

Ryan

Hi @Residentx ,

Each module in STIPS has its own test and badge. If you know the subject matter, you can take the test for each module. If you pass the test, you will get a badge for that module from an email. To complete all of the STIPS modules will take about 25 hours. STIPS uses JMP 15.2 for all its demos.

The tests do not ask about the differences between JMP and JMP Pro. I find the best place to see the differences is using the JMP Starter from the View menu. It shows which features are JMP Pro only.

There are also JMP certifications for STIPS and DOE (and Scripting). These are paid exams taken through a testing service. If you click on this link https://www.sas.com/en_us/certification/credentials/jmp/jmp-statistical-thinking.html you can find example exam questions for this certification.

The new user welcome kit does have a combination of videos recorded on windows and mac. The JMP functionality is the same, and you will notice in STIPS that all the demos are on windows.

You mentioned several different topics, I'm not sure which badges you are attempting to get. I recommend the STIPS course as a thorough application of many JMP features. The badging process with that course is a great way to document your knowledge gained.

For clarification, STIPS awards its own badges which are different than the badges awarded via the Community. Since Community badges are isolated from other badging systems, we thought it would be beneficial to recognize those Community members that completed a STIPS course with a Community badge.

@Ryan_Gilmore Thanks for the information. I originally registered years ago for through the forms but I registered yesterday directly on the form which I don't think is the proper way. I will register on the form and see what happens. Thank you very much for the info.

@ledi_trutna I have completed the online short STIPS/Welcome and the full STIPS (25 hours course).

About the certs, I took STIPS yesterday/last night and failed (Not a big deal). The VMs are kind of slow and lots of white pages so I see why 155 minutes was needed. I'm going to push off DOE (Scheduled for next week and do review of STIPS again). I like the format but was unprepared for the lab part. I spent time learning the UI and keyboard shortcuts and it had no questions about, lol.

I'm just talking about STIPS and DOE community badges but I'll post screenshot (see above w/markers) with specific badges highlights.

Thanks for your prompt reply.

The Community badges for STIPS and the kits are awarded on a weekly basis so there may be a delay before you see them.

RE: JMP Elearning Updates

Residentx — Wed, 20 Oct 2021 06:51:01 GMT

@Ryan_Gilmore Can you define a "week" in JMP community terms? Is that like a "New York Minute?" Does that calculation include weekends? Does JMP discovery alter the calculations? LOL :)

Today is two weeks since I opened this case. A week since you commented. What's the "tarnished" truth? :)

Can you tell I have Virginia Beach on my mind (weekend getaway)? https://tarnishedtruth.com/

Moving back to this. Here's my screenshot taken right now.

Thank you for the follow-up @Residentx.

The "Kit" badges were not awarded either because. your Community email address was not used when you initially registered or how our process handles multiple registrations. In either case, I have assigned both kit badges to your profile.

As for the STIPS badges, our records indicate that none of the courses have been completed. When most are completed, there will be the issue of the Community email address not matching the email used to register for the course.

Hope that helps clarify.

@Ryan_Gilmore Thanks for prompt post again.

What do you mean when you say "not used when initially registered" I posted screenshot above? I appeciate the DOE award. I have done STIPS but it may have been on another account (gcarlislemd@hotmail.com) so if you tell me how to register for STIPS properly, I will do it again because I failed the STIPS Exam and will be happy to do this again for this account.

I appreciate your support and I look forward to making progress with SAS & JMP.

Ryan_Gilmore — Wed, 20 Oct 2021 20:50:16 GMT

The "initially registered" comment was based on seeing multiple registrations for the DOE Introduction Kit and the New User Welcome Kit in our system and your previous comment,

"I originally registered years ago for through the forms but I registered yesterday directly on the form which I don't think is the proper way. I will register on the form and see what happens"

STIPS uses the SAS Profile to sign in. You have two SAS Profiles - one for your hotmail.com email address and one for altersciences.com. SAS Profiles cannot be merged. So, I would suggest completing the course using either email address. When you complete a course, send me a private message in the Community. I will verify completion and award the badge.

I'm back on this...

First, I have two accounts to test everything.

I've passed some tests on my other account but I'm still not getting the badges. What's the deal with?

Next, where is the best place to post for content fixes to e-learning content? I keep running into content that needs repair because not done properly.

Help!!! I need to move faster with efforts to learn JMP. This is taking too long. I'm spending too much time open bug tickets.
