Upwork Skill Certifications

Hi,

I am a no-code Web Developer and Designer and a Graphic Designer. Recently I've received an invitation to take on a "Web, Mobile & Software Development" Upwork Skill Certification. However, from what I see in the documentation, this Certification is geared mostly for programmers. I develop websites using no-code tools like Webflow, Airtable and unfortunately can not choose any of the existing options.

I do, however, feel that I can qualify for the UI/UX and Graphic Design Certifications in the Design&Creative category.

Is there a way to change the category? It's great to receive an invite and showcase my skills to the client but it's sad that the current category doesn't match what I do.

Thanks!

Hello,


The New Upwork Skill Certifications can be found at:


https://community.upwork.com/t5/Get-Certified/Web-Mobile-amp-Software-Development/ta-p/1085006


I have two questions:


1) When will Upwork start issuing invitations to write these exams?

2) Has Upwork changed their examination partner from codesignal.com to some other company?


Regards,
Chrysanthus

Dear Members of the Upwork Community,

I am writing to express my concern regarding the Upwork Skill Certification invitation that I received on April 2nd and April 16th. Unfortunately, despite receiving the invitation twice, I have not made any progress with the certification process yet.

I kindly ask for your assistance with this matter. I would greatly appreciate any guidance or support that you may be able to offer to help me move forward with the Upwork Skill Certification process.

Thank you for taking the time to consider my request. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Sincerely,

Halit Tarko.

Hi Halit,

 

Could you please share more information about your concern with the skills certification? Are you unable to access it?

Hi! I recently passed the React front end test and earned an Upwork Skill Certification. Do I have to do anything on my end or does the Certification automatically appear on my profile? If so, how long until it does? Thank you! 

 

Hi Zee,

 

Congratulations on completing Upwork Skill Certification! Test scores are manually reviewed and may take a few business days before you receive your results.

Same as the title. How long does it take for Upwork team to assess the test results and provide certification? How to know if I passed or failed?

Hi Bishal,

 

We've escalated your Community post directly to the team in charge of the review. They confirmed that you should receive the results within 48-72 hours from completing it. Also, the result was sent to you last 10- May, and it's also available in your Messages.

 

Let us know if you need further assistance; we'll gladly look into that for you.
