Procedure

A participant that has completed an on-demand training course with certification can register for a test session to take the certification test.

A participant also has the option to take a certification test without attending the associated course. This is only recommended for participants with high-level knowledge of the subject. Generally, participants that have passed a certification test without attending the course previously are those that have been using the product for years.

The test only option is not available for the LS Central SaaS Certification. 

For all LS Central certification test only sessions, the following applies:
  • Participants register for a session available on the LS Retail Academy calendar.
  • Certification tests are held online via Microsoft Teams with an LS Retail employee hosting the meeting.
  • Video call is mandatory (Participants must have a functioning webcam).
  • For assistance, participants can contact the LS Retail employee by chat.
  • Participants that have not taken a course associated with the certification can take the certification test only once. If a participant does not pass, the participant must complete the corresponding training course in order to retake the certification test.

For a retake session, the following applies:
  • A retake is available for participants who have previously attended or have completed an on-demand course and did not pass the corresponding certification test.
  • Participants can retake a test no later than 4 weeks after the end of the course or after taking the first test.
  • Participants can only retake a test once. If a participant does not pass the retake test, they will need to complete the course again and take the certification test at that time. If the certification is for an on-demand course, and a participant does not pass the retake test and requests to take it again, the cost will be the original test only fee.

LS One certification tests are optional, the following applies:
  • Participants will be able to schedule a date to take the test which will be available any time on that date.
  • Participants can retake the test. If a participant does not pass the retake test and requests to take it again, the cost will be the original test only fee.
