Every certificate has a unique verification page, so employers can check that the result is genuine. Results are checked by our anti-cheat system before a certificate is issued.
How to get your certificate
It takes about five minutes:
- Sign in with a free account (so the certificate has your name on it).
- Take a 1, 3 or 5 minute typing test. Longer tests carry more weight with employers.
- On your result, choose Get certificate.
- Print it, save it as a PDF, or share the verification link.
What employers look for
Most employers care about net WPM (after errors), accuracy and test length. A 5 minute certificate at 50 WPM and 97% accuracy is more impressive than a 1 minute burst at 60 WPM with 90% accuracy. Add your result to the skills section of your resume with the verification link.
Frequently asked questions
Is the typing certificate really free?
Yes, certificates are free for every verified test of 1 minute or more.
How do employers verify my certificate?
Each certificate links to a verification page on TypingAcademy.org showing the original result, date and test details.
Can I improve my certificate later?
Yes. Take more tests whenever you like - each verified result can produce its own certificate, so you can always share your best.
Why wasn't my result verified?
Results with pasted text, impossible speeds or robotic keystroke timing aren't verified. Just take the test normally and it will be.
