About JFrog Academy
New here?Below is a quick orientation to everything JFrog Academy
Your team's learning hub for the JFrog Platform.
A platform is only as strong as the people running it. That's why JFrog Academy exists to unlock the full capabilities of your ecosystem through practical, product-focused education.
Built and maintained by the very experts who created the product, our role-based learning tracks cover everything from quick feature explainers to 3-hour instructor-led deep dives. Equip your team with hands-on labs and official certifications to maximize your JFrog investment.
JFrog Academy is designed to address common gaps
Security tooling, underutilized
Xray is configured, but Curation isn't. Developers aren't scanning locally. Vulnerabilities are caught late - or not at all.
Academy Solution
JFrog Academy's security learning path covers Xray, Curation, and Advanced Security end-to-end - so every team member can act on the tooling already in place.
Artifact governance at scale
No retention rules, no clear ownership. Binary estates grow faster than teams can manage them without the right policies in place.
Academy Solution
Courses on Artifactory administration, repository strategies, and federation help teams build governance frameworks that scale with their estate.
Slow onboarding cycles
New engineers spend weeks learning what experienced team members figured out through months of trial and error.
Academy Solution
Self-paced courses and role-based learning paths compress onboarding from weeks to days - structured knowledge instead of tribal wisdom.
Manual compliance processes
Audit trails built from Jira tickets and email threads. Evidence collection treated as an afterthought rather than part of the pipeline.
Academy Solution
Academy training on pipeline integration and policy-as-code helps teams bake compliance into their workflows - not bolt it on at the end.

Common questions about getting certified. We have answers.
Do I need to complete a course before sitting the exam?

What format does the exam take?

Each exam consists of 30–50 multiple-choice questions drawn from a larger question bank, plus a hands-on practical lab component. The exam is self-paced — there's no requirement to schedule a specific time slot.
What is the passing score?
+
−
A minimum score of 80% is required to pass all JFrog Associate certifications.
How much does certification cost?

JFrog certifications are valid for 2 years from the date of passing. Upon completion, you receive a digital badge and certificate. Recertification requires repurchasing and retaking the exam.
Is the certification recognised outside JFrog?
