New Exam Launch – Make Use of the Summer Campaign!

news

We are pleased to announce the launch of our new certification exam: Local Internet Registry (LIR) Fundamentals.

The LIR Fundamentals badge allows you to demonstrate proficiency in managing Internet number resources: covering the essential skills required to request, distribute, register, sponsor, and transfer them. Badge holders also understand how to seek support and actively engage as stakeholders within the wider Internet ecosystem.

To earn the LIR Fundamentals badge, candidates must successfully complete the newly launched LIR Fundamentals Analyst Exam online. A free online preparation course is available through the RIPE NCC Academy to help candidates get ready.

As part of our Summer School Campaign, we are offering a free RIPE NCC Certified Professionals exam voucher to anyone who completes a course on the RIPE NCC Academy before 31 August 2025. You can use this voucher to become certified at no cost, including with our newly launched LIR Fundamentals exam.

How to claim a free voucher:

  1. Go to the RIPE NCC Academy.
  2. Enrol in the course of your choice.
  3. Complete the course.
  4. Forward your course completion email to exams@ripe.net. We will then send you an exam voucher.
  5. Use your voucher code to take any RIPE NCC Certified Professionals exam, including the new LIR Fundamentals exam!
