ISTQB CTFL - Software Tester Foundation Training

The ISTQB Certified Tester Foundation Level (CTFL) course offers a comprehensive introduction to the principles and methods of software testing. The course covers topics such as testing concepts, testing processes, test management, and test tools. Participants will learn how to plan, design, execute, and evaluate tests. The training prepares for the internationally recognized ISTQB Foundation Level certification and enables entry into a professional career in software testing.

This training is officially accredited and aligns with the current syllabus for CTFL v4.0. It is designed to prepare participants thoroughly for the exam, which can be taken online and results in an official ISTQB certificate. The curriculum provides a comprehensive understanding of the terminology and concepts used worldwide in the field of testing. It is relevant to all software delivery approaches and practices, including Waterfall, Agile, DevOps, and Continuous Delivery.

The CTFL certification is a prerequisite for all further ISTQB certifications that require the Foundation Level.

Improved Career Opportunities: An ISTQB certification increases job opportunities by 40%. Employers prefer certified testers because they demonstrably possess the necessary knowledge and skills.
Higher Salary: Certified testers earn, on average, 20% more than their non-certified colleagues. This salary increase reflects the value employers place on the additional qualification and expertise gained.
Knowledge Growth and Confidence: Participants report a significant increase in their expertise and confidence after certification. A survey found that 92% of ISTQB-certified testers believe that the certification demonstrates and recognizes their professional competence (Source: ASTQB U.S.).
