Get an edge with Okta and Auth0 Certifications

Start by identifying your area of interest: Okta or Auth0. Next, explore resources on this page and use the study guide to begin your preparation. Practice using the premier practice exam, available for 75 USD. It allows up to seven attempts. Note that missing or canceling appointments can forfeit attempts. When ready, schedule your exam via ProctorU through certification.okta.com, completing a one-time profile setup. For assistance, email certification@okta.com.

To preserve the security and value of the certification program, all candidates must accept the terms and conditions of the Okta Certification Program Agreement during the registration process and at the beginning of any Okta certification exam.  Acceptance of the terms and conditions is required in order to officially become certified and maintain a valid certification status. Download the agreement and read it in full before scheduling your Okta exam. If you are not willing to be bound by the Agreement, you will not be allowed to take the exam.

Okta certification exams are priced at 250 USD for the first attempt, except for the Okta Certified Technical Architect board defense exam, which costs 5,000 USD for the first attempt. The retake price for all certification exams is 100 USD per subsequent attempt and 2,500 USD  for the Okta Certified Technical Architect board defense exam. Maintenance exams cost 100 USD  for the first attempt, 0 USD for the second attempt, 100 USD for the third attempt, and 0 USD for the fourth, alternating between 100 USD and 0 USD for every subsequent attempt. Premier Practice Exams are priced at 75 USD, covering a total of seven attempts, with an additional 75 USD charged for every subsequent set of seven attempts. Payment for an Okta exam is made during the scheduling of an appointment and can be done using a credit/debit card or an exam voucher.

Okta certifications are valid for two years. However, individuals who earn the Okta Certified Technical Architect certification receive an automatic one-year extension, making their Professional, Administrator, Consultant, Developer, and Technical Architect certifications valid for three years. You will be notified by Okta regarding requirements and timeline for completing recertification activity.

It is not required that you attend a training class prior to your exam; however, taking recommended training and reviewing Okta Community assets will put you on a fast track to certification success.  It is also highly recommended you review the corresponding study guide for the exam you are preparing to take: Professional Exam Study Guide, Administrator Exam Study Guide, Developer Exam Study Guide, and Consultant Exam Study Guide.

All ProctorU exams must be taken through the Guardian Browser, a secure, purpose-built browser for Mac and Windows. It is required that you download the Guardian Browser to your computer for remote testing prior to your test session.

If you cannot download the Guardian Browser to your computer because you are blocked by your network or experiencing other technical errors, contact Meazure Learning Support for troubleshooting. You can reach the support team via the support chat linked here: https://support.meazurelearning.com/hc

If the issue cannot be resolved through initial troubleshooting, an administrator can switch the test taker to the Guardian Extension. This switch will be performed by a Meazure Learning technical support team member or a support representative through the ticketing system.

Once switched to the Guardian Extension, you can add the extension to your Chrome browser from your main ProctorU page or directly via the provided link: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/fiffaolbojaggkamgjpmambpadolfkmd

We recommend using your personal laptop or computer for testing as you are required to download the Guardian Browser for remote testing and to avoid issues on a company-provided laptop.

If you have technical issues with ProctorU, contact Meazure Learning Support. Phone, Chat, and Ticket Support are available. These options are available on footer pages of the ProctorU website and on the left side bar in Guardian Browser for immediate access. 

If you need technical support during your exam, alert your proctor so they can pause your exam and stop the exam clock. Time elapsed for technical support will not be counted as exam time.
