How it works

  1. Read the free courses; each has its own quiz to practise on.
  2. Pay €15 and you are sent to the exam page: 40 questions drawn at random from the 73-question pool across every course, pass mark 80%, about 30 minutes, one attempt per payment, a second attempt free if you fail by one.
  3. Pass and your certificate carries a number, your name, the date and the score. Employers can email us the number to confirm it.

Why €15

It pays for the exam platform and the manual checks. The courses stay free because the exam exists.
