How It Works - Certification for Web Developers

CancanIT certification is based on thoroughly composed 2-stages exam. Our contributors and mentors have invented hundreds of test questions and tenths of practical tasks. All of them are designed to have strong "real-life" background. We are targeted to test challenger's real skills and understanding, not just the syntax or terms memorizing. This approach sets CancanIT apart from the competition.

Practice Task

Practice Task goes after successful passing of theory test. You will be asked to complete a small "real-life" task. Depending of chosen certification program this can be: develop a script, program code, style a page layout, fix/optimize a live website and so. Time to complete practice tasks vary from 1 to 4 hours.
