The training is followed by the official ISTQB certification. The certification exam is taken remotely and on demand, on the date of your choice (voucher valid for 1 year). It consists of a 40-question multiple-choice exam and lasts a maximum of 1 hour. The certification is awarded if the candidate achieves at least 26 correct answers (65%).
