Introducing the Mainframe Foundation Test
To assist candidates with their preparation for a BCS MTP exam we have created the Mainframe Foundation Test (MFT).
It is a one-hour online test consisting of 30 questions. These questions are drawn from the three topics that successful candidates should be proficient in. When the test is completed scores are given in each of the three topics and areas of concern highlighted.
