We’re sunsetting our Bronze certifications as well as our Product Mastery: Silver certification. It means that we currently offer two certification programs: the new Wrike Certified Professional for product mastery and our Report Mastery: Silver for reporting and analytics. Please find more details on the Wrike Discover website and let us know if you have any questions.

Pietro Poli

Thanks Lisa!

Daisy Hibbard

I'm halfway through the Silver Certification process with a goal of finishing by early November. How will this change impact me? (I would love to have the option of pausing my Silver Certification and get transitioned over to the certification process with no additional fee!)

Elizaveta Bogdanova

Hi folks!

@Eric Fiero Thanks!

@Pietro Poli This may not be possible yet, but that's the plan 👍

@Daisy Hibbard you have two options:

Continue your Silver certification and get the Silver badge that will be valid for 1 Year. Once it expires, you will need to sit the Wrike Certified Professional exam to renew your product certification.
Continue on the Wrike Certified Professional learning path and sit the WCP exam. It's recommended if you're early on in the Silver path or if you want to get your learning in Wrike Lightspeed.

I'll ask our Wrike Discover specialists to reach out to you 🙂

Kelly Recinos

I had the same question as Pietro! Thanks, Lisa.

Sven Passinger

Does changing from the "old" certificates mean a recertification or a completely new certification (especially regarding the costs)?

Elizaveta Bogdanova

Hey @Sven Passinger, could you please clarify - are you in the process of being certified at the moment or do you already have one of the certificates?

Sven Passinger

@Elizaveta Bogdanova I do not understand how this influences your answer. I generally asked if I have a certificate, will it a recertification or do I have to buy the more expensive new certificate? For me personaly I have already both silver cerificates (product mastery and report mastery).

Elizaveta Bogdanova

Apologies for the confusion @Sven Passinger! All certifications issued prior to the new certification updates are valid till their expiration dates. To get recertified, candidates with a Bronze or Silver certificate need to sit the recertification exam which is offered at $199 - it's a lower price compared to the full fee. Hope this helps 🙂

Thomas Won Nyheim

@Elizaveta Bogdanova some of my colleagues are looking into taking the certification, but we have a question in regards to the time to complete the certification. As we have the summer holidays coming up, we were wondering if there is a limited time frame from purchasing the certification course until it has to be completed?

Roberto Lopez

Hi Thomas, it's great to hear that your colleagues are considering taking the Wrike Certified Professional!

Stepping in for Lisa to address your question: There is a 90-day completion deadline for the certification, which begins from the day of enrollment. If they purchase the certification course directly from Wrike Discover, they will be enrolled immediately, and their 90-day time frame will start at that moment.

I hope this answers your question, let me know if you have any more questions

Enjoy your summer holidays!

Hi! I am unable to access this course. After clicking 'Enroll Now,' I am directed to a page with two tabs: 'About this course' and 'Content.' On the 'Content' page, I can only see the training material information but cannot start the course itself.

Could you please assist me with this or direct me to the correct space/team? Thanks in advance (:

Elizaveta Bogdanova

Hi @Ritu Nauriyal, welcome to the forums 👋

Could you please confirm you can't see the green "Add to cart" button on the upper right side of the screen:

Hi @Elizaveta Bogdanova! I'm excited to be a WCP! Can you clarify how we go about reporting our PDUs as mentioned on this page https://discover.wrike.com/pages/120/wrike-certified-professional (and below in bold)? I'd like to avoid the need to retest. Submitting PDUs seems like the way to go to keep my certification valid. Looking forward to your response. Thank you.

Maintain your certification badge: To maintain your WCP certification, you need to either take the recertification exam at $199 or earn 12.5 Wrike Professional Development Units (PDUs). You can claim PDUs by attending Wrike on-demand training sessions and Wrike events (i.e. Collaborate) prior to your certification expiration. If your certification expired and you have not accumulated the right number of PDUs, you need to take the recertification exam.

Roberto Lopez

Hi Jessica Kvanvig, Congratulations on becoming a Wrike Certified Professional! 🎉

To maintain your certification status without needing to retest, you can continue engaging with Wrike Discover courses and Wrike training. This includes self-paced courses, video tutorials, instructor-led training sessions, and on-demand courses. 📚 You can easily monitor and keep track of your accumulated PDUs on the "My Transcript" page, with each PDU equating to 1 hour of training.

As your certification renewal date approaches, you'll receive a reminder email with detailed instructions on how to claim your PDUs. You'll be able to claim PDUs directly from this link.

I hope this helps answer your question! 😊 If you have any more questions, feel free to let me know.

Jessica Kvanvig

Thank you @Roberto Lopez! This is perfect.
