Has anyone here taken the tests for the RFPIO certification?

I am going through the training that leads up to the certification test for Project Management and Content Management in RFPIO. There seem to be two courses for each, one in the Classic and one in the New UI. Do you need to watch both? Or only the New UI in order to take the tests? Thanks!

I always find that the answer comes to me after I've taken the time to ask a large group, lol. I'm glad you found the answer. I actually got both certifications as a proposal manager before joining RFPIO. Even though I knew quite a bit about the program, I still learned about some functionality I hadn't used and some new best practices. It also gave me a reason to set aside time to really focus on mastering the program, which I had continuously put off (pesky proposals getting in the way). I'd love to hear others' feedback too!

I got both certifications: one with the old UI last year and one with the new UI. Both work fine, and the workshop provides good information. It gave me a deeper understanding of the tool's features and concepts.

Well, that will teach me to post a question before I read everything... I have answered my own question, LOL

Would love to hear everyone's thoughts on the experience though :)

@Susanne Taylor Of all Badges that are available in this awesome community, is there a way to get ones added for those who have the Project Management and Content Management Certifications??? ;)

Patty Graner

I got both - using new UI materials. I did find that the Project one did not have the questions align as much with what the training provided. The Content one did.

@Beth_B, yes, there are badges for both certifications. Just request them via the Earn Badges link under the Quick Links on the home page or go here: https://rfpio.vanillacommunities.com/badges

@Suzanne I see the badges for certifications for APMP, but not the ones for RFPIO. Are they the same?

Susanne Taylor

@Beth_B try now, and I'll watch for your request.

Elizabeth Bissell

I saw them now :) Just sent the request!

Susanne Taylor

You have them now! Congratulations! You have more badges than my Girl Scout sash, lol. Way to go. And awesome job gaining both certifications.

Elizabeth Bissell

LOL, I cannot even remember how many badges I had on my Girl Scout sash! But, I am sure that is when I started coveting badges!!! Thank you so much for this!!!
