Has anyone taken the Elixir/Erlang certification exam from Erlang Solutions?

Hi everyone,

I’m considering pursuing the Elixir/Erlang certification exam offered by Erlang Solutions and wanted to check in with the community first.

Has anyone here taken the certification recently?

What was your experience like (difficulty level, format, preparation resources)?

Was the certification valuable for your career or current job role?

Any recommended study material or tips you’d like to share?

I’m primarily a backend developer and looking to validate my knowledge in the BEAM ecosystem, especially with Elixir and Erlang.

Thanks in advance for any insights you can share!

I haven’t done the course but Erlang Solutions has been around for almost as long as Erlang itself, so in the BEAM world there’s probably nothing that comes close in terms of certification credibility :icon_biggrin:

I did… many years ago. :slight_smile:

What was your experience like (difficulty level, format, preparation resources)?

It was not extremely difficult but it did require some serious OTP knolwedge.

Was the certification valuable for your career or current job role?

Yeah. It definitely helped me get my second Erlang job (the first one was the one where I learned Erlang :wink: ).

Any recommended study material or tips you’d like to share?

Check this out: Spawned Shelter - Erlang and Elixir training with the the best articles, videos, books and talks. Learn about Erlang internals of its virtual machine and other languages that run on top of it
