You can find the
Certification Datacard here. And in there you can find 'Additional study material' which is paid, but self-study. The cost for the book there is less than the cost for the exam itself.
In the
Exam datacard you can see what is being tested in the exam, so you could prepare for the exam independently. Still using the official material would be the path that most people follow.
