BJSC MCQ · Give each week a clear focus.
8 weeks · About 6 hours per week
Blue Prism Robotic Process Automation Fundamentals
Define the core Blue Prism vocabulary (process, object, page, stage, business object, work queue) in your own words without notes
Diagram the lifecycle of a session from Control Room start to completion, labeling each actor and artifact involved
Classify ten example automation tasks as process-level or object-level work and justify each classification
Explain the difference between a stage and a page to a non-technical colleague in under two minutes
Your checkpoint
A one-page glossary plus lifecycle diagram covering at least 15 Blue Prism terms, self-scored against the official documentation
Blue Prism Robotic Process Automation Fundamentals & Process Design and Process Studio
Build a working process in Process Studio that reads input data, branches on a condition, and writes results to a collection
Trace the execution order of stages in a process you built and predict the output before running it
Use decision, calculation, multi-calculation, and choice stages correctly in a single flow
Identify and fix three common Process Studio errors (unconnected stages, wrong data types, infinite loops)
Your checkpoint
A functioning sample process with at least 12 stages that passes a peer or self-review checklist
Process Design and Process Studio
Design a process that separates business logic from data handling using collections and loops
Apply naming conventions and page-layout standards consistently across a multi-page process
Convert a written business procedure into a stage-by-stage process design document
Test your process against normal, boundary, and missing-data inputs and record the outcomes
Your checkpoint
A process design document plus implemented process covering one realistic scenario, with a test results table
Object Studio and Application Modelling
Create an application model for a sample application including all windows and controls you interact with
Spy and configure at least five element types (button, text field, grid, menu, label) and verify each with a highlight test
Build a business object with actions that read, write, and navigate within the modeled application
Explain when to use application modeler attributes versus dynamic attributes in your actions
Your checkpoint
A reusable business object with at least four documented actions, each demonstrated working against the sample application
Object Studio and Application Modelling & Exception Handling and Error Management
Wrap every object action in a recover-and-resume block with meaningful exception handling
Distinguish business exceptions from system exceptions and route each to the correct handler
Implement retry logic for transient failures and verify it triggers under simulated timeout conditions
Log exception details to a work queue item so failures are traceable after the session ends
Your checkpoint
An exception handling matrix mapping at least eight failure scenarios to their handler type, plus working implementation for four of them
Exception Handling and Error Management & Control Room and Work Queue Management
Configure a work queue with priorities, tags, and deferred items, then demonstrate each behavior
Design an exception-handling strategy for a queue-driven process, including item-level retries and terminal failure states
Explain how session logs and queue reports are used to diagnose a failed run
Set up a scheduled process in Control Room and confirm it executes as expected
Your checkpoint
A configured queue with at least 20 items processed end to end, including two deliberately failed items showing correct exception paths
Control Room and Work Queue Management & Solution Design and Delivery Best Practices
Assign roles and permissions in Control Room following least-privilege principles
Draft a solution design document covering scope, process hierarchy, object reuse, and environment promotion
Identify five design decisions in your solution that follow delivery best practices and justify each
Review your solution for maintainability issues such as hard-coded values and undocumented assumptions
Your checkpoint
A solution design document for your end-to-end automation, including a process hierarchy diagram and a risk list
Blue Prism Robotic Process Automation Fundamentals & Process Design and Process Studio & Object Studio and Application Modelling & Exception Handling and Error Management & Control Room and Work Queue Management & Solution Design and Delivery Best Practices
Complete two full timed practice exams and score each by domain to find remaining gaps
Re-study your three weakest domains using targeted notes and hands-on exercises
Walk through every domain objective and rate your confidence, flagging any you cannot explain aloud
Review all prior deliverables and correct at least three errors or gaps you find
Your checkpoint
A scored practice exam report with a per-domain breakdown and a written remediation log for every missed objective
Milestones
Week 2: You can build a branching process from scratch in under 45 minutes without reference material
Week 4: Your business object works reliably against the sample application across three consecutive runs
Week 6: A queue-driven process completes 20 items with correct handling of two forced failures
Week 8: Practice exam scores exceed 80% overall with no single domain below 70%
