A short assigned course on the software people adopt for themselves, treated as a question about where company data went rather than a rule breaking problem. Covers free tiers, accounts held in a personal name, browser extension permissions, access grants to mailboxes and document stores, and the trial that quietly becomes a system of record. Ends with the four sentence route to getting a tool approved.
Nothing. Every course, exam, and certificate on the catalog is free — including retakes. All you need is a free Safeguard account.
None. The flagship course, Safeguard Certified Practitioner, is a beginner-level course — basic familiarity with how software is built helps, but every exam question is answerable from the lessons themselves.
You can retake it after a 24-hour cooldown, as many times as you need. Retakes are free, and each attempt draws a fresh random set of questions.
The Safeguard Certified Practitioner credential is valid for 24 months from issue. The expiry date is printed on the certificate and shown live on its public verification page. Renewing means passing the current exam again.
