Already know it? Test it directly.

If you already know a subject, you can take a Cert-Advance assessment without completing a mandatory long-form course first. The platform focuses on demonstrating existing knowledge through practical tasks and recording the result in a verifiable completion certificate.

What is skill verification here?

Here, skill verification means structured testing of how you apply knowledge to supplied situations. Your result records performance on that assessment. It does not establish your identity, independent performance in every workplace situation or the absence of outside assistance.

How does this differ from a course-first journey?

A course-first journey commonly combines learning material, course completion, assessment and a certificate. Cert-Advance starts with knowledge you already have: choose an assessment, demonstrate it, review the result and obtain an eligible completion certificate. If you need to learn the subject, a course or other training may be the right starting point.

Which skills can I test?

The current catalog includes AI Fundamentals, Business Communication, Cybersecurity Awareness, Data Analysis, Digital Marketing, Project Management and three Python levels. Counts and time limits vary by assessment; the individual briefing explains what to expect.

Can I get a certificate without a course?

A completion certificate records your assessment and score. In the current beta, issuance requires a completed assessment and the short private assessment feedback; there is no minimum passing score. You do need to take the assessment; a certificate is not issued just for claiming a skill.

Is this available without a subscription?

Assessments and completion certificates are free during Open Beta. Complete the short private assessment feedback to unlock your certificate. Pricing may change after beta.
