Description
Officially certify your Arduino knowledge of programming and electronics with the Arduino Basic Exam.
The Arduino Fundamentals Exam + Kit Bundle includes an Arduino Starter Kit and access to the certification exam.
The Arduino Fundamentals Certification Exam has been developed in consultation with interaction designers and professionals from the electronics industry, taking into account leading technology curricula, and evaluates skills based on labs consisting of hands-on assignments from the Arduino Starter Kit.
To receive the certificate, you must answer 36 questions over a 75-minute period. When you purchase the package, you receive the Arduino Starter Kit and an activation code to unlock an Arduino Fundamentals trial.
Once the code has been redeemed, you will have one year to activate the check, otherwise the code will be invalid. The exam is available in English, Spanish, Italian, German and Chinese.
You can try out the demo version to take a closer look at the course of the test.
Exam Fields:
You will be confronted with questions that test your knowledge in the following 8 main categories:
