Adobe Certified Professional · Specialty Credential
The web is everyone's storefront now. Prove you can build it.
The Adobe Certified Professional in Web Design is earned by pairing Adobe Dreamweaver with Photoshop or Animate. One certification pathway: two exams, three credentials, training included, and SkillUp Pro membership. Built for web designers, front-end builders and freelancers who need proof of skill a client can check.
The credential clients and recruiters can verify in one click.
The Web Design specialty is issued by Adobe, delivered by Certiport, and verifiable through Credly. It's proof you can plan, build and publish professional, standards-based websites. Not a portfolio you have to defend, but a credential anyone can check.
Valid for five years. Shareable on LinkedIn. Yours to show on every application, proposal and pitch.

Why certification first
Five problems graduates face. One fix for all five.
Knowing the tools isn't the problem. Proving it is. Here's what a certified graduate has that everyone else is still trying to explain.
Problem 01 · Unemployment
CVs without proof get skipped.
Every application says "good with Photoshop." A verified Adobe credential is proof of skill a recruiter can check in seconds.
Problem 02 · Internships
Studios pick interns on evidence.
Placements go to people who can work to a standard from day one. Certification shows you already do.
Problem 03 · Entrepreneurship
Clients need a reason to trust the quote.
Freelancers and founders win web projects faster when the client can verify the skills behind the price.
Problem 04 · Deeper understanding
Self-taught leaves gaps.
The exam objectives cover the whole job: planning, layout, standards and publishing, not just the features you happen to use.
Problem 05 · Global reach
Your skills should travel.
An Adobe credential carries the same Adobe standard in every country, so your proof of skill goes wherever the work is.
