So I finally passed the CPACC last month and I'm still kind of in shock because my first attempt did not go well at all. I scored a 64% when you need a 65% to pass — literally one point off — and I was devastated. The thing is, I'd been studying for about six weeks but I was mostly focused on the wrong stuff. I spent way too much time on WCAG 2.1 technical criteria and not nearly enough on the disability types, assistive technologies, and the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities framework.
For round two I completely changed my approach. I started with a solid CPACC - Certified Professional in Accessibility Core Competencies study guide that broke down the three domain areas properly, and I used timed practice questions every single day for the last two weeks. The FREE CPACC Basic Questions and Answers set was honestly a great starting point because it helped me identify my weak spots fast without wasting time on stuff I already knew.
Anyone else here prepping for CPACC? Happy to share more specifics on what topics to prioritize — there's definitely a pattern to what shows up most frequently on the actual exam.
