For training and certification you get a corresponding Credly badge that you can add/share in your Developer Community profile or your Linkedin and other social accounts.

When you take an InterSystems training course you get attendance badge, for example:

Building and Managing HL7 Integrations Training

Certification is separate from training, when you pass a certification exam (performed by a third party entity) you get the corresponding certification Credly badge, for example:

InterSystems HL7® Interface Specialist

Hi Harshitha, are you interested in a particular kind of training? Here are some other general resources to begin with:

  • Online Learning: free self-paced learning materials, including videos, exercises, and role-based programs or task-based learning paths. You can also earn a badge at the end of some learning paths and programs.
  • Instructor-led classroom training: In-person and virtual classroom training, with badges for completion. You can register for courses as an individual, and companies can request private training.
  • Certification exams: Our highest-level digital badge that requires more preparation and demonstrates your mastery of a topic. You can share the badge on any social platform.

You might also want to sign up for the Learning newsletter to stay up to date on learning resources.

Hi Harshitha, I'm from the certification team! Adding on to what everyone has said, certification is considered separate from training. Certifications at their core are designed to be experience-based, so while taking a training course will certainly help strengthen your knowledge base and serve as good preparation material, it likely will not cover everything on the exam or in enough detail. 

If you are interested in getting certified, I recommend checking out our available exams. Each listed exam has a description of the target role, recommended practical experience, recommended preparation, and exam topics. Please feel free to contact certification@intersystems.com if you have any questions! We're more than happy to help!
