Every time you pass a certification exam, you receive a certificate for safekeeping, a personal URL to Magnolia's online listing (if you agree to the terms) and a badge.
To be rewarded with the Certified Associate Developer title and to be able to achieve the highest recognition of Certified Magnolia Professional, you must pass all exams under the program.
Attending instructor-led training is the best way to learn Magnolia. You will be taught by our trainers who are guaranteed Magnolia Experts. You'll also experience hands-on exercises with direct supervision.
It is the perfect opportunity to ask your open Magnolia-related questions directly to the experts. We promote an interactive atmosphere in our training sessions.
Not necessarily.
As an individual developer, you are not obliged to attend training and be certified. However, we still highly recommend attending instructor-led training for better guidance and understanding of Magnolia 5.5+.
For partners, it is mandatory that your developers meet prerequisite requirements such as having attended training and successfully passed the related certification exam.
The Generalization path that the program is offering leads to one ultimate recognition, to be a Certified Magnolia Professional.
Attending the Developer Training and passing the Associate Developer Certification Exam will earn you the Associate Developer title. This is one step away from achieving the highest recognition, a Certified Magnolia Professional.
The Specialization path on the other hand can lead you to become a master of a specialized area.
If you for example choose to specialize in front-end, we recommend that you pass all the front-end-related certification exams and attend front-end training sessions. You will receive a badge for each exam you pass. There is however no recognition once you have completed all the training and certifications in a single specialization path. Your badge collection will be the basis of your proficiency.
No need to worry. We're pleased to give you advice or provide assistance regarding the Magnolia Certification Program.
