The Intended Audience 

 

2.1 Intended 
Audience

The intended audience was determined by SMEs for XenApp through a Job 
Task Analysis (JTA) procedure. The SMEs defined the audience by 
discussing the job functions that require use of the enterprise edition of the 
Citrix XenApp 5.0 for Windows Server 2008 product. The SMEs also 
determined that the exam should focus primarily on Citrix products.
