GitLab Technical Certifications
Over the past 12 months GitLab launched 6 new technical certifications, which focus on everything from continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) to security and project management.
These certifications were made available to GitLab Professional Services customers who purchased live instructor-led GitLab training for their teams and GitLab Commit 2020 attendees. As a result of our latest iteration efforts we are beginning to roll out self-service, asynchronous versions to make them available for everyone on GitLab Learn!
New Async Technical Certification Option
We’re now bundling together the three main components you need to earn the GitLab Certified Associate certification asynchronously: A self-study eLearning preparation course, a certification knowledge exam, and a graded hands-on exam you complete in a GitLab sandbox environment. This self-service GitLab training bundle is available on GitLab Learn and is priced at USD $650.
