Completion
Certificate of completion
A certificate of completion records attendance and completion of training. It does not confirm a passed competency assessment; it remains a historical record with no expiry date.
ProSentinel Academy Certification System
Competence demonstrated through assessment.
Every Academy level has its own competency assessment. Certification is awarded to a candidate who meets the requirements and passes the assessment for that level.
This is ProSentinel Academy’s proprietary system. It is not state certification, accreditation or a qualification entered in Poland’s Integrated Qualifications System (ZSK). It confers no statutory permissions.
Completion and certification
Certification
Level certification
A level certificate records a successful assessment of defined competencies. Attendance, payment or professional experience alone cannot replace assessment. Prepared candidates may attempt it without repeating training after an entry review.
- Level I–III assessments
- CORE requirements met
- Integrated Capstone Assessment
- ProSentinel Integrated
CORE — requirements for the final certification
Candidates must pass the Level I, II and III assessments in four CORE programmes and hold a current Level III certification in each. Experience may support entry to assessment without taking the course; it does not automatically award earlier level certificates.
CORE connects open sources, human-source information, digital material and operational security. Information analysis and threat assessment are assessed across these programmes and in the final assessment.

ProSentinel Academy Integrated Certification
One assessment connecting the competencies
The Integrated Capstone Assessment requires independent work on a multi-domain case, an assessment and a defence of decisions. It assesses information integration, judgement under uncertainty and recognition of limitations. It is not a sum of earlier tests.
Assessment and the certification decision are separate. The decision is approved by a person who neither delivered the training nor assessed that attempt. Candidates must meet the criteria in every required area; strength in one domain cannot compensate for a gap in another.
Assessment dates and availability are confirmed before enrolment. Publishing the rules does not launch a register or award certification.
Specialist extensions
Cybercrime, organised crime and social engineering develop a specialism. Each level has its own certification, but these programmes are not mandatory for the final certification.
Practical readiness, including firearms training, remains an optional operational extension outside CORE. Sessions lead to a completion record without a separate competency certification. A ProSentinel completion document does not replace a permit, licence or statutory qualification.
What passing means
A knowledge component, where used, requires at least 80% correct answers. The practical component requires demonstration of every mandatory competency at the level set for the assessment. Breaches of material integrity, independent working or safety prevent a pass. Detailed tasks and scoring sheets are not public.
Entry requirements and candidate identity are confirmed before assessment. Scope, format, pass rules, available adjustments, dates and fees are agreed before enrolment. Feedback states the result and areas requiring improvement.
Retakes and appeals
A retake is available after a minimum of 14 days. A passed level-assessment component is retained for 6 months; the whole assessment must then be repeated. The capstone is retaken in full using a different case. There are at most three attempts in 12 months; after a third failure, a development plan and at least a 90-day break are required, while the annual attempt limit still applies.
An appeal may be submitted within 14 days. It is reviewed within 30 days by a person uninvolved in the original assessment or decision. Reasonable adjustments to the format do not lower the competency standard.
Validity and renewal
- Level certification 36 months
- Level certification is valid for 36 months. Renewal requires a current assessment at that level. Update training can prepare a candidate but cannot replace assessment. A combined renewal assessment may cover several previously earned levels within the same programme.
- ProSentinel Integrated 36 months
- The final certification is valid for 36 months. Renewal requires 30 documented development hours during that period, current CORE Level III certifications and a shorter integrated assessment. If the requirements are not met by expiry, the status expires; reinstatement requires CORE eligibility and the full capstone.
Completion records do not need renewal. Expired certification is not presented as current; payment alone does not renew status.
Checking a certificate
A certification document should identify a unique ID, scope, level, issue date and expiry date. Its verification URL and QR code are intended to confirm status without a public participant directory.
Automated online verification is not yet live. We agree how a document can be confirmed directly with its holder. This page does not validate any certificate.
ProSentinel Academy / AI
Combining competencies in practice
The overarching AI credential combines broad foundations, two specialisations and an independent project.
ProSentinel Certified AI Professional
- Successful assessments at Levels I–III of AI Foundations and Literacy.
- Successful assessments at Levels I–III of two distinct additional specialisations chosen from the four remaining tracks: at least nine level assessments in total.
- Current Level III certification in all three required tracks.
- An interdisciplinary final project, a successful defence and a separate certification decision.
Validity: 36 months. Renewal requires 30 documented development hours, current Level III credentials in the three required tracks and a renewed interdisciplinary project assessment. After expiry, candidates must meet the requirements again and pass the full final assessment.
The knowledge test requires at least 80%. Practical assessment requires all specified competencies; breaches of safety or independent-work rules prevent a pass. Attendance alone does not confer certification.
Certification is valid for 36 months. Renew a level through a current assessment of its competencies; renew a specialisation through a Level III assessment covering the whole track. Academy rules on retakes, appeals and an independent certification decision apply.
This is ProSentinel Academy’s own competency certification system. It is not a state or regulated qualification, an academic degree or an ISO certificate.
Automated online verification is not yet live. Document confirmation is arranged directly with its holder.
Certification rulesProSentinel Academy / UAS
ProSentinel Certified UAS Professional
A ProSentinel professional credential combining operational foundations, selected specialisations and an independently assessed project.
- Pass all three levels of UAS law, safety and operations.
- Pass all three levels in at least two additional specialisations: at least nine level assessments in total.
- Prepare an interdisciplinary civilian project covering planning, safety, records and an outcome. Defend it before an assessor independent of its supervision.
Each level requires at least 80% in the test and a pass in every required practical skill. Attendance is recorded by an attendance statement; certification follows successful assessment. Passing all three levels earns a specialisation certificate.
Certificates are valid for 36 months from issue. Renewal includes a knowledge update review and reassessment of key skills. Professional renewal also requires at least 30 documented development hours during validity and an updated project.
Reassessment covers failed elements after feedback and remediation. Date, scope and any cost are agreed before reassessment. Following a safety-related stop, readiness must first be confirmed.
ProSentinel certificates confirm assessed Academy competences. They do not replace operator registration, pilot competence documents, declarations or operational authorisations. Formal aviation training or examinations require a separately and explicitly confirmed route.
This is a separate Academy route. It does not change AI or ProSentinel Integrated Professional certification rules.
