   UiPath Certified RPA Associate

This certification programme is ideal for professionals looking to build, assess, and demonstrate their robotic process automation skills. This is a foundational level certification that paves the way for becoming Advanced RPA Developers, Solution Architects, or RPA Architects. 

This UiPath certification evaluates problem-solving and process identification skills of the candidate and the ability to build simple automation solutions. Experienced RPA Developers can choose to skip this level as it is more suitable for knowledge workers in technical and semi-technical roles including Junior RPA developers, architects, solution architects, business analysts, accountants, system administrators, and college graduates. 

The prerequisites for the programme include three to six months’ RPA hands-on experience or RPA Developer foundational training.

Certification preparation 

There are multiple free-of-cost practice tests available online where the subjects are aligned to the proctored certification exams with static questions. 

The exams include multiple-choice, drag & drop, and simulation-based questions. Candidates can take the exams in secure proctored environments at Pearson VUE Test Centres in any part of the globe or even as remotely proctored exams at their private location via OnVUE.

In the multiple-choice section, candidates will get straightforward questions,  some of which will have graphics, scenario-based questions, scenarios with graphics to make the question realistic when assessing skills, graphics as answer choices, and code as answer choices.

The drag & drop part aims to assess candidates’ understanding of a particular process and tests their logical thinking and reasoning ability.

In the simulation-based section, candidates get questions to test their media (Video, Flash) and active screens skills.
