Prodigy Learning and Certiport, a Pearson VUE business, the leading test delivery solution provider for the global workforce and academic markets, today launch the new Toon Boom Certified Associate (TCA) Certification Programme.  Certiport will immediately offer four TCA-level exams: Storyboard Pro, Harmony Essentials, Harmony Advanced and Harmony Premium which will be exclusively available in the UK & Ireland through Prodigy Learning.

TCA certification is a new way to validate and communicate superior animation skills to prospective employers and academic institutions. Storyboard Pro is a storyboarding software that combines drawing and animation tools with camera controls and Harmony is Toon Boom’s powerful animation software. Certiport and Toon Boom worked together to develop the TCA certification exams with key objectives designed to measure the fundamental functions of the software.

“Toon Boom software is the industry-standard for storyboarding and animation creation,” said Francois Lalonde (Vice President of Sales, Toon Boom). “All top animation studios use Toon Boom extensively and individuals looking to build a career in this field can prove their expertise with this new certification program.”

TCA certification will also be supported by electronic badging from Acclaim, enabling learners to easily share and prove their skills in the digital world. TCA certification will be administered through Certiport’s network of more than 14,000 Certiport Authorized Testing Centers worldwide.

“Certiport’s goal is to help every individual earn industry-recognized certification,” said Aaron Osmond (General Manager, Certiport, a Pearson VUE business). “Adding diverse offerings such as the new Toon Boom Certified Associate exams helps us to reach more individuals in varied fields. We are excited to help students master and validate their Toon Boom skills to build their resumes and give them a distinct advantage in the animation community.”
