The Certified Full-Stack Developer – CFSD® program has been registered with SPEN, the Dutch Foundation for Permanent Education (in the register, search for “CFSD”), and diplomas are awarded by Centrum Post Initieel Onderwijs Nederland (CPION), an independent government-recognized organization that assesses and registers post-initial and continuing education courses.
To earn the diploma, you must pass (or obtain waivers for) the following exams:
Please note that, once you have passed the required exams and wish to obtain the diploma, a separate payment of €49 is due; this will cover the fee charged by CPION.
Unlike other providers, we do not charge an additional “Annual Maintenance Fee” to keep your certification(s) in good standing. However, we do require that you keep your IT knowledge current by obtaining at least 20 CPE/CPD hours per year. Therefore, access to 20 hours’ worth of CPE/CPD is included in your paid site subscription (but not in the free first-year trial).
