Certification FAQ

Learn more about training and certification.

  • Who is eligible to take a certification exam?

    Our certification exams are available to anyone who feels prepared to attain the related certifications. We offer courses and training materials to help you prepare for each exam, but you can purchase and sit for any certification exam any time you like.

  • Can I get certified without taking the training courses?

    Yes. Our training courses are the best way to gain the knowledge tested in our certification exams, but course attendance is not a required step in the certification process.

  • How do I purchase a certification exam?

    Exams are available for purchase in our Couchbase Academy store. Locate the exam and add it to your cart. You’ll be directed to log in if you haven’t already done so. Once logged in, you can complete the checkout process. Once your purchase has been completed, you can log into Couchbase Academy and complete the exam at any time.

  • How long do I have before I have to take my exam?

    Once you’ve purchased your exam from the Couchbase Academy store, you must complete the exam in Couchbase Academy within 90 calendar days or the exam will expire. Once an exam has expired, you must purchase another if you wish to continue. Therefore, we encourage you to take your exams as soon as you are prepared after purchase.

  • What happens if I pass the exam?

    Within 72 hours of passing the exam, you’ll receive a notice to claim your digital badge through Credly. Once you accept your badge, you’ll be provided with links for sharing the badge via LinkedIn, X (formerly Twitter), etc. You can also download the badge and place it in your email signature.

  • Do I have to create an account to take the exam or get the badge?

    Yes. In order to purchase an exam, you must create an account with Couchbase Academy. Once you pass the exam and receive your “Accept badge” notification from Credly, you’ll need to create an account with Credly to accept your badge.

  • What happens if I do not pass the exam?

    If you need another opportunity to take the exam, you can purchase another exam from our Couchbase Academy store. We encourage you to refresh your knowledge with the material in the associated course before re-attempting the exam.
