Arduino Certification Bundle: Kit & Exam
Officially certify your knowledge of Arduino in the field of programming and electronics by taking the Arduino Certification exam.
Overview
The Arduino Certification exam + kit bundle includes an Arduino Starter Kit and access to the certification exam.
Developed in consultation with interaction designers and electronic engineering professionals as well as in regards to leading technology curriculum, the Arduino Certification exam assesses skills based upon exercises comprised of practical tasks from the Arduino Starter Kit.
To obtain the certificate, you will be requested to answer 36 questions over a period of 75 minutes.
Purchasing the bundle will grant you the Arduino Starter Kit and an activation code, which can be used to unlock 1 attempt at the Arduino Certification exam.
Purchasing the exam alone costs $30, and grants 1 attempt at the Arduino Certification.
Once the code has been redeemed, you have one year to activate the exam, otherwise the code will become invalid.
The exam is available in English. Spanish, Italian, German and Chinese.
You can try the demo to have a closer look at how the exam will be.

In this tutorial, you'll learn how to connect your Arduino MKR NB 1500 board securely to Microsoft Azure IoT Hub.

We are excited to announce a new partnership with Chirp, a London-based company on a mission to simplify connectivity using sound. Chirp’s machine-to-machine communications software enables any device with a loudspeaker or microphone to exchange data via inaudible sound waves. Starting today, our Chirp integration will allow Arduino-powered projects to send and receive data wirelessly over sound waves, using just microphones and loudspeakers. Thanks to some compatible libraries included in the official Arduino Library Manager and in the Arduino Create — as well as further comprehensive documentation, tutorials and technical support — it will be easy for anyone to add data-over-sound capabilities to their Arduino projects. Our new Nano 33 BLE Sense board, with a DSP-optimised Arm Cortex-M4 processor, will be the first board in the Arduino range with the power to transmit and receive Chirp audio signals leveraging the board's microphone as a receiver. From now on, the Chirp SDK for Arduino will support the following boards in send-only mode: Arduino MKR Zero, Arduino MKR Vidor 4000, Arduino MKR Fox 1200, Arduino MKR WAN 1300, Arduino MKR WiFi 1010, Arduino MKR GSM 1400, Arduino MKR NB 1500 and the Arduino Nano 33 IoT. Creative applications of Arduino and Chirp include, but certainly are not limited to: Triggering events from YouTube audioSecurely unlocking a smart lock with sound Sending Wi-Fi credentials to bring offline devices onto a Wi-Fi networkHaving a remote control that only interacts with the gadgets in the same room as you “Connectivity is a fundamental asset for our users, as the demands of IoT uptake require devices to communicate information seamlessly and with minimal impact for the end user. Chirp’s data-over-sound solution equips our boards with robust data transmission, helping us to deliver enhanced user experiences whilst increasing the capabilities of our hardware at scale,” said Massimo Banzi, Arduino co-founder.
