FAQ
What does a certificate from Semrush Academy mean?
A certificate from us means you've completed all the content in one of our courses and passed any necessary quizzes, plus the final exam, to prove you know your stuff! Our certificates are like a badge of honor so you know you're heading in the right direction in your marketing career.
How long does it take to earn a certificate?
It all depends on the length of the course and your own pace of learning. All of our courses are designed so that you can learn at whatever speed is most comfortable to you. Check out the overall time on each of the courses so you can estimate how long it'll take you to get through it!
Do I need prior knowledge before I start learning?
Not at all! Everything here at the Academy is designed with all career stages in mind – from total beginners to experienced professionals. On each course's overview page, you'll see the general content covered, target audience, and lesson descriptions, so you can get a feel for if a certain course is right for you right now.
How many attempts do I get to pass the course exam and receive my certificate?
Just to keep the playing field even, we allow you to attempt the final course exam three times to try and earn your certificate of completion. If you don't pass within those three times, don't stress – you can try again after a month. This waiting period makes sure our process stays fair and everyone is here for learning (no speedrunning courses here!)
Where can I find my certificate?
After you complete your course and pass your final exam, you'll be directed to a page to access your digital certificate. Download it, share it, print it out or display it with pride on the fridge – it's up to you!
Absolutely – in fact, we encourage you to! Showing off your certificate on social media is a great way to showcase your skills and dedication to learning! Just download your copy, select which platform to share it to, and make sure to tag us! 😉
Is there a limit to the number of certificates I can earn?
Nope! We have so many different courses on offer, so the last thing we want to do is stifle your desire to learn! Our goal is to encourage you to try out as many diverse disciplines as you'd like. Who knows – you might try something on a whim to broaden your reach and decide it's your calling! Digital marketing is always evolving, and with no limit on certificates, you can, too!
Are Semrush Academy certificates internationally recognized?
Yes! Semrush Academy certificates are globally recognized and highly respected in the marketing industry (if we do say so ourselves). By obtaining a certificate of completion from us, you're boosting your credibility, proving your dedication to staying on top of industry trends, and expanding your career opportunities. What's not to love?
Does my certificate ever expire?
Yes – each certificate is valid for one year from the date of completion. This ensures that your education is the most up-to-date with industry standards as possible and reflects the best practices. Don't worry, though – you can always go back and take them again to keep them as current as possible!
