To unlock higher-level courses (e.g. SilverStar or GoldStar), you need to complete all previous certifications.

Status Points track your progress in the Digital Academy. You earn points for watching and completing lessons. The functionality of Status Points may expand in the future. However, they do not replace Black-, Silver-, or GoldStar certification.

Your progress is saved in your personal account, so it will be preserved even if you pause your membership. You can continue from where you left off when you resume.

To begin, access the Digital Academy and commence by watching the relevant lessons to complete the basic training. Afterwards, you can proceed to undertake your certification. We recommend scheduling your certification appointment before starting the lectures, providing you with a set date and goal to work towards. This approach helps you maintain focus while progressing through the content.

You can find an overview of seminars and certification dates here, and you can also register for them on the same page.
