Frequently Asked Questions

What are Badges on VTEX Academy? How can I register?

Badges are formal validations of knowledge related to VTEX topics. They are exams designed to confirm that a learner has: 
- Understood key concepts
- Achieved a defined level of proficiency
- Demonstrated knowledge through an assessment
Not all programs on VTEX Academy have Badges as a final assessment. You can check our available Badges on this page. You can register for the Badges through the platform; each credential has a “Register Now” button that redirects you to this credential's checkout page. You then just need to purchase the Badge to receive your login details.

Why should I earn a Credential?

Earning a badge allows you to
1. Validate your VTEX knowledge in a structured way
2. Demonstrate expertise to employers, partners, or clients
3. Track your professional growth over time
4. Prepare for role-based or advanced VTEX certifications

Are Credentials mandatory after the programs?

No. Badges are optional. You can access all learning content on VTEX Academy without purchasing any badges. Badges are only required if you want formal validation of your knowledge.

How are the credential exams?

Each credential includes 40 questions, a defined scope of knowledge and a program that serves as a learning recommendation to take the exam. The exam is done online, in a proctored environment, with screen, camera and microphone recording.

How do I buy a badge? Can I buy it for my team?

To register for a badge exam, you must purchase directly on VTEX Academy through the platform checkout.
You can buy:
- A single badge
- A badge bundle (5, 15, or 50 attempts) for yourself or for your team
There are no contracts or manual purchase processes.  

What is a badge bundle and how does it work?

A badge bundle is a package of multiple credential attempts purchased at once.
Bundles are available in 5, 15 and 50 attempts and expire in a 6-month period. When you purchase a bundle, you receive a coupon code containing the total number of badge uses purchased. Each use equals one credential attempt, and each time the coupon is used, one attempt is deducted from the total.

Can I post my badge on LinkedIn?

Yes. In case you are approved on a badge, you will receive a digital badge and can post it wherever you want.
