The Acquia Certified Professional program is the first program in the industry providing systematic, objective assessment to validate the skills and knowledge of Drupal developers, and is poised to become the gold standard for all those designing with Drupal. Comprised of 60 questions, the exam covers Fundamental Web Development Concepts, Site Building, Front End Development (theming), and Back End Development (coding).

So far the response from the Drupal community is that this is one of the most comprehensive and difficult software certification courses out there. That is why OPIN Software will now be offering four day boot camps that will enable attendees to understand Drupal core principles, fill knowledge and experience gaps, reflect on prior experience critically, understand the best approaches in a given situation, and of course get prepared to take the certification exam.

This four-day instructor led workshop has 8 practical sessions of 2 to 3 hours each plus 2 one hour discussion sessions. The practical sessions will have goal oriented or exploratory challenges given to participants. Our instructor will help participants solve the challenges and facilitate deeper learning of the Drupal core. On the Last day of the boot camp we will proctor the exam on laptops right in our office training room.

Upon completing the exam those achieving a passing score will receive their credential electronically and a digital badge from the Acquia Certification Program Office. Earning Acquia Certifications will gain you visibility and credibility for your experience and expertise and help your organization establish a leadership position within the Drupal community. The skills obtained in preparing for the exam will enable your team to complete more Drupal projects in-house and in a more efficient and effective manner. In addition it also provides you with a certification that could make all the difference in advancing your career should you apply for another job or switch departments.

The cost will be $2250/person, whereby attendees will get 4 days of training and one attempt to complete the exam. This course offering will be made available to the public in September.
