Autodesk Certified Professional (ACP) certifications are designed for industry professionals who possess advanced skills and can solve complex challenges in workflow and design. The experience needed to earn an ACP certification typically comes from having worked with the software on a regular basis in a professional environment for at least 2 years, equivalent to approximately 400 hours (minimum) - 1,200 hours (recommended) of real-world Autodesk software experience. The Autodesk Certified Professional certifications are the industry recognized credentials for users who have mastered the Autodesk software skills covered in these exams. After earning an Autodesk Certification, you will receive an official certification and digital badge from Autodesk to share on your resume and portfolio.

The Autodesk Certified Professional (ACP) certifications exams can be taken at a Pearson VUE Testing Center or through OnVUE, Pearson VUE’s online proctored environment. Candidates are given 120 minutes to complete a certification exam and you should review the testing center polices and requirements before scheduling or purchasing Autodesk Certification exam vouchers.
