Certification FAQs
ICDL has been a reference standard for over 25 years, recognized by companies for the quality and reliability of its certifications. Based on international standards, ICDL certification is now distributed in over 100 countries. In France, several of our certifications are registered with the Répertoire Spécifique de France Compétences, making them eligible for certain types of funding. This institutional recognition reinforces their credibility with employers and those involved in training.
To qualify for ICDL certification, you need to score at least 75% correct on the exam. If you don't reach this threshold, you'll receive an attestation de passage with your score, which you can use to certify your level.
If you fail, you can retake the certification 72 hours after your last attempt. Please note: rescheduling procedures and any additional costs may vary from one training center to another. Please contact your training center for more information.
The process of becoming an ICDL-accredited center is simple and structured in several key stages:
- Submit your request via the online authorization form, presenting your project and structure.
- A validation interview with our sales and quality teams will enable us to assess whether your project meets our requirements.
- If your application is accepted, we will send you a partnership offer.
- Once accepted, the partnership contract is signed. This step is compulsory before any training.
- An initial mandatory training course is then followed by your center's referents to master our tools, platform and ICDL guidelines.
- At the end of the training, your certification is officially validated and you can start certifying your learners.
