Who Professional certifications are for

Professional certifications are designed for professionals with around two years of experience who want to formally validate role-readiness. This tier confirms you can operate independently in a specific role, not just understand its fundamentals.


Certifications available

Uxcel Certified Product DesignerValidates end-to-end product design competency — research, interaction design, visual design, and the ability to ship polished, user-centered work.

Uxcel Certified Product ManagerValidates core PM competencies — roadmapping, stakeholder management, prioritization frameworks, and shipping product decisions grounded in data.

Uxcel Certified Design EngineerValidates the hybrid skill set at the intersection of design and front-end implementation — design systems, prototyping with code, and design-to-dev handoff.


Exam details

Professional exams include 80 questions with an 80-minute time limit, and a passing score of 70%. Each attempt is a single purchase; if you don't pass, you can retake immediately at 50% of the original exam cost.
