Certificates you earn in your own repo

The courses are free to read and need no account. Certification is what you pay for: €149 per certificate, with three exam attempts. A voucher covers that in full. We give vouchers out through our campaigns, meetups and partners. Card payment is not open yet, so for now the way in is a voucher; if you don't have one, ask us through the contact page.

A GitHub account, the two courses of the track finished in your own GitHub repositories (for private ones, install our GitHub App so we can read them), and your learner code from your dashboard committed there, so we know the work is yours.

We read your repository at the commit you submit. It is rendered and validated the way the courses build it, and checked against the scenario you were given. We never run your code or install its dependencies.

An AI model grades it against a rubric, with your answer treated as data, never as instructions. It is one of three parts and can never pass an exam on its own. Your answer is sent to our AI grading provider (OpenAI by default) for this, as our privacy notice explains.

Usually within minutes. You can wait on the page, where the result appears when it is ready, or close it and read the email.

You see which parts did not pass and short feedback on the written answer. Each voucher gives you three attempts.

No. The exam may be open in one window at a time. Opening it in a second tab, window or device fails the attempt. You will be asked to confirm this before you start.

Every certificate has a public page at platformengr.com/verify/<id> and a machine-readable Open Badges credential. You can add it to LinkedIn with one click.
