This article deals with some common questions that Asana customers might have about the Asana Certification program. Visit the Asana Academy to earn certificates and badges, or learn more about them.

About the Certification Program

What is a certification program?

A certification program is a training and assessment program to develop new skills. Upon completion, you will be provided a digital credential verifying your expertise. The Workflow Specialist and Asana Administrator certificates are earned after successfully completing all courses, a capstone project, and a final exam. The skill badges are earned through the successful completion of all courses and a final quiz. 

What is the difference between a skill badge and a certificate?

A skill badge verifies the acquisition of a specific skill and does not expire. A skill badge can help prepare for a certification or certificate but is not a prerequisite.
Certificates are awarded for broader sets of knowledge and verified with a capstone project and exam. Certificates expire based on a prescribed time frame and require a fee for completion.
