By completing Practicode, you will gain the equivalent of one year of experience, allowing you to remove the "A" and become a fully certified CPC right away. The best part? The coding experience required to remove the Apprentice status is seamlessly integrated into the course, so you will complete it as you progress. That means by the time you finish, you will have both passed the exam and fulfilled the experience requirement—qualifying you for full CPC certification right away.
