Hi, whats’s the difference between this certification and the Expert Gameplay Programmer (https://blogs.unity3d.com/es/2018/01/11/now-available-worldwide-unity-expert-gameplay-programmer-certification/)
Hello there, Thanks for your question. I would suggest that you check the exam objectives documents for these exams to see the difference between the exams. In short, Expert Gameplay Programmer certification is an Expert exam for professionals who have 4+ years of experience and have had some experience working in the industry. Unity Certified Programmer is for Entry/Mid-level career professionals who have 1-2 years of experience working with Unity. I hope this helps.
Hello, I was wondering if this certification and the test-prep are using Object-Oriented Programming or if it includes the new Data-Oriented Design that has been announced as the future of Unity ? (like ECS or the already there C# Job System)
Hello there,
Thanks for your question. We are not testing your Data oriented design skills in this certification. If we are testing Data Oriented Design, we will explicitly mention it in our exam objectives document. Things may change in the future as Unity evolves. Please make sure to check the exam objectives to see what skills are tested.
How long is the cert for?
Hi Anthony, Thanks for your question. The certification is valid for 2 years once you pass the certification exam. I hope this helps.
Experience and past portfolio work will always beat a certification, so although courses can be a great way to learn, if you’re a self-starter / indie developer you’re better off putting the time and money into making your projects
Based on a Unity Certification registration policy, this exam is not currently available via online proctored in your country of residence :(
Sorry Zhang :( at least it tells you before you start.
Thanks Colinisok!
Hello Zhang,
We are trying our best to have the online proctoring option available worldwide. But there are some countries where this is not feasible because of language and/or other infrastructure related barriers. There is always the option to go to a center nearby and take the certification exam.
