Yes, candidates must pass the CKA exam before attempting the CKS exam. For successful CKS exam preparation, i recommend CKS practice exam material to every candidate. These practice tests not only familiarize you with the exam format and types of questions but also help you to understand key concepts that play a vital role in exam success.
