Self-Study and Direct Exam Booking via Exam Providers You can prepare for the certification independently. Self-study using the syllabus and recommended reading materials is a viable option for exam preparation. The syllabus outlines the essential structure, learning objectives, and knowledge areas necessary for certification, but it is not a comprehensive training manual or tutorial. Additional resources may include runnable examples, official documentation, and various tools available on the Robot Framework website. If you have trained independently and feel confident in your knowledge, you can book your certification exam directly via GASQ (LINK)
Accredited Training Providers Accredited Training Providers are officially recognized organizations by the Robot Framework Foundation that offer structured training programs for the Robot Framework® Certified Professional (RFCP®) exam.
