MuleSoft training FAQs

We asked our recently certified MuleSoft developer Olga Kepa to answer the most common questions about MuleSoft training. Read about her first-hand experience in her new blog 'Pursue your dream: from MSc in Physics to MuleSoft development'.

What are prerequisites? Is Java required for Mule training?

One of the main prerequisites for the MuleSoft training is some knowledge of Object-Oriented languages like Java. It's also helpful to understand data formats, such as XML, CSV, and JSON, and integration technologies like HTTP, JMS, JDBC, REST, and SOAP.

Is coding required for MuleSoft?

The requirement for coding is minimal. Coding is mainly needed to perform data transformation. The actual implementation is done by drag-and-drop the Anypoint platform's components, such as routers and connectors to various systems and databases. 

How long does it take to learn MuleSoft? 

Let's look at the 1st stage of the learning path - becoming a certified MuleSoft developer. You have 2 options - self-study or instructor-led courses. The Anypoint Platform Development: Fundamentals course is free and available to everyone. It usually takes 2-4 weeks, depending on your experience with integration technologies and your pace of learning. The other option is to take an instructor-led 5-day Anypoint Platform Development: Fundamentals course. During these 5 days, you will dive deep into the various topics required to become a Mulesoft Developer.

What is the best way to learn MuleSoft?

The instructor-led training is more impactful than a self-learning course. You learn much faster under the close supervision of your instructor. Although the self-study course has less support, you can spend more time studying different concepts as you are in control of the learning pace.

How difficult is MuleSoft certification? 

The 2-hour certification exam MuleSoft Certified Developer - Level 1 (Mule 4) consists of multiple-choice questions based on real-life scenarios. The passing score is 70%. Prepare well, practise and spend time completing exercises to pass the exam. MuleSoft website or MuleSoft training forums are great sources of useful information. Note that the MuleSoft certification expires two years from the date you pass the exam.

Is MuleSoft training free?

The self-paced Anypoint Platform Development: Fundamentals course is free and available to everyone. For the instructor-led classes and certifications, you have to pay.

Describe the certification exam. 

The exam can be taken either online and or at various global test centres. As a part of the instructor-led training, you receive a voucher for 2 certification exam attempts.
