Associate Developer Certification

More information

More information can also be found on our certification page on hyva.io.

The first certification offered by Hyvä is the Associate Developer Certification.

The Hyvä Associate Developer Certification requires existing Magento experience in relevant frontend areas. No Hyvä project experience is needed, even though it certainly helps. It is designed so it can be passed after self-study of documentation (with access to Hyvä source code) or after completion of a training course.

The Associate Certification is a chance to prove your skills, boost your credibility, and show you're serious about building fast, clean, high-quality Magento stores.

For developers, it is a gateway into the Hyvä ecosystem.
For companies hiring talent, certification is a good way to distinguish potential candidates.
