MySQL Certification volume discounts now available

Carsten Pedersen, Certification Manager, MySQL AB

Several companies have asked us how to obtain discounts when they wish to certify many employees or training candidates. To meet this need, a volume-discounted voucher program has been set up. This program enables companies with the option of purchasing a discounted block of prepaid exams.

Vouchers are unique numbers that represent a prepaid credit. A candidate may claim the credit when registering for a MySQL Certification exam with our testing partner, Pearson VUE.

Vouchers may be bought for both the Core exam and the Professional Beta exam, both of which are currently available to all certification candidates.

Contact your account manager for more information on the Certification Volume Discount Program, or write to certification@mysql.com for further details.

The MySQL Core Certification examines skills in basic MySQL administration, the tools used with MySQL, knowledge of client/server architecture, SQL and many other valuable areas. The MySQL Professional Certification goes into more depth on topics such as proper setup procedures for a new MySQL installation, the differences between individual MySQL storage engines, security issues, optimizations, and more.
