Professional certification

Certifications, qualifications and recognitions that require third-party verification and sometimes renewal.

What's different about a certification

  • Validity: set an expiration date; the page shows "expired" afterward.
  • Revocation: if a certification is cancelled, revoke it with a reason; verifiers see its current status.
  • Third-party verification: employers and clients verify using the link or code, without contacting you.

Exam-based certification

Partner associations and organizations can create exam-based certification programs in SmartCerts: question banks, online exams and credentials issued immediately to successful candidates. Create your certification program.

The organization defines the exam content and passing score; SmartCerts administers, grades, issues and maintains verification.
