Programming & Web DevelopmentCPA: C++ Certified Associate Programmer
CPA: C++ Certified Associate Programmer, from the C++ Institute (part of OpenEDG), confirms that you can write object-oriented programs in C++ with a sound understanding of how the language works. This is a programming certification and is not related to the accounting CPA. It suits developers and students who know the basics and want a recognised associate-level credential.
The exam covers object-oriented programming in depth, including classes and objects, inheritance and polymorphism, exceptions, operator overloading and working with the standard library. Our preparation course pairs clear explanation with substantial hands-on coding, then rehearses the exam format so you sit it well prepared.
