Certification Process

The first step of certification is to enter the program as a nominee. Potential participants can be nominated by a Keysight technical employee, who will act as a sponsor to apply on their behalf and include his or her recommendation for consideration. Then the candidate will complete a detailed certification questionnaire. The Keysight Certified Expert committee will review the application before final acceptance.

Most Certified Experts are nominated by a Keysight technical employee, but if you feel like you are qualified and interested in this program, please contact the Keysight Certified Expert program manager at certified.expert@keysight.com.
