Level 2 Certification

Wolfram U offers numerous resources for learning Wolfram Language programming, and certifications provide opportunities to demonstrate your proficiency and expertise. Level 2 certification involves submitting an independent project that demonstrates expertise in using Wolfram Language to solve a complex problem. Projects can be submitted to the Wolfram Function Repository, Wolfram Language Paclet Repository or Wolfram Language Example Repository or presented during a certification session. A submission notebook containing your Wolfram Language code is required. Repository submissions are approved by curators of the Wolfram Resource System. In addition, certification project submissions are assessed by the certification team according to the grading rubric.

Recommended Level 2 Certification Process

  • Wolfram Language programming skills are required in order to use your knowledge to solve a practical problem. Helpful learning resources include the Wolfram Language Programming Proficiency course sequence and other Wolfram Language courses found in the Wolfram U catalog.
  • Identify the computational problem you want to solve using Wolfram Language and develop your project notebook.
  • Consult the grading rubric to ensure your project meets certification standards.
  • Pay the $395 certification fee (Education customers pay $195; students pay $95).
  • Submit your project to the Function Repository, Paclet Repository or Example Repository, or request a file upload link and a certification session with a Wolfram instructor.

Submitting Your Project

Once your project is complete, pay the certification fee and follow instructions to submit it to the Wolfram Resource System or contact us to request a file upload link and schedule a presentation session with a Wolfram instructor. All projects are scored according to the grading rubric. A project score of 75 or greater will earn Level 2 certification in Wolfram Language programming. You will be notified about your certification status within three weeks of your submission. Successful applicants will receive a certificate suitable for printing and sharing, and every applicant receives project feedback that includes an explanation of their score. Applicants who receive scores under 75 may work to improve their projects and can apply again for Level 2 certification by submitting revised projects with the certification fee.
