Questions

Before you enrol

Which package should I choose?

The Full Online Course suits most candidates — it teaches API 653 from the ground up and issues a CPD-accredited certificate worth 60 credit hours. Take the Mock Exam ($199) only if you already know the publication well and simply want realistic exam practice.

Are the courses 100% online?

Yes. Every package is fully online and self-paced. Study from any country, on any device, and revisit the material as often as you need before your exam.

Do you register me for the official API 653 exam?

No. We prepare you to pass; you book the official API ICP exam separately through API. Our course and mock exams cover the full API 653 Body of Knowledge so you walk in ready.

Is the certificate CPD accredited?

Yes — the Full Online Course issues a CPD-accredited certificate with 60 verifiable credit hours that count towards your API recertification. The mock-exam packages do not include a certificate.

What if I need more than 6 months to finish the full course?

Access to the Full Online Course is renewable for another 6 months free of charge. Contact support before your access window closes.

What is your refund policy?

The Full Online Course comes with a 48-hour money-back guarantee. The mock-exam packages are non-refundable.

Do these hours count towards API 510, 570 or 653 recertification?

Yes — the 60 CPD credit hours from the Full Online Course count towards API 510, API 570 and API 653 recertification.

Ready when you are

320 lessons, 1,900 exam-style questions and a certificate worth 60 CPD credit hours — with a 48-hour money-back guarantee.
