Installer Certification Process
The prerequisite components are all delivered as web-based training modules. The actual course content may
be completed either online or in a facilitated training course.
A Bootcamp option is also available to fast track certification with a one-day accelerated workshop to drive
home the theoretical and practical elements before sitting the final certification exam.
Web Based Training
Web based training is made up of a number of short modules allowing you to study at your own pace, in your
own time. Each module is made up of one or more objectives, with objectives containing a mix of slides, videos,
exercises and review questions.
Once all objectives have been studied, an online module exam must be completed. These exams are timed and
have a minimum pass rate of 90%. If a module exam is failed 3 times, you must undertake facilitated training to
gain certification.
Certification Exam
Once all certificate modules are complete (either all online or a mixture of online and facilitated), a supervised
certification exam must be taken (and passed) to gain certification.
Supervised exams must be carried out at an ICT approved facility with one practice exam available online. You
must achieve a score of 80% or above to pass and if a certification exam is failed 3 times, you will have a 3
month stand-down period and must then complete a facilitated course.
Each attempt at a supervised exam incurs a charge.
Training Cost
Pricing varies according to location but included in the training pack is a range of Protege GX hardware,
software, and accessories. The hardware and software may be resold to recover the cost of training, however
alternative hardware must be available for any further technicians to use in conjunction with the training
program.
