Update: UFT Certification is back again since March 2018. Read this article to get all detailed about the latest UFT Certification exam.
Ever since the merger of HPE with Micro Focus has completed, several things have changed for people working on tools offered by the erstwhile HPE. Micro Focus has suspended almost all the software certification programs that were offered by HPE earlier.
There is a silver lining, however. All certifications will be available in a fresh new avatar soon.
We have curated a common list of questions and answers from our email exchanges with Micro Focus support and various FAQ documents provided by them.
Here are some key points you should note:
- Going forward, software certifications that were offered by erstwhile HPE will no longer be available for enrollment on PearsonVUE nor on the HPE Certification and Learning websites. Henceforth, all certification exams will be administered and hosted in View Central by Micro Focus
- ATP and ASE exams offered by HPE are being rebranded as ASP and ASE exams respectively at Micro Focus.
- In case you have already achieved certification from HPE, those will be retained by Software Education at Micro Focus. However, they will not be reflected on the new learner profiles on the Software Education LMS (ViewCentral). You can send an email to Software Education support
hpswedexamproc@hpe.com
for manual recording of historical results into your current ViewCentral profile. Micro Focus will also validate and confirm any verification queries from Talent Acquisition teams - Depending upon the regional needs, historical exam-take-rate and resource availability various certification exams will be prioritized and re-launched. Certification exam transition will continue through 2017 and 2018. Micro Focus has started with Big Data and ESP exams.
- UFT, ALM certification exams are expected to become active offerings by early 2018.

Best regards,
Hi Ankur Jain,
Let me begin by congratulating you about this blog post about the suspension of UFT certification (related to the merger of “HPE Software” with “Microfocus”).
I’ve found a typo in this article. There’s a “strange” word (“erstwhile “) in the following sentence:
” (…) Going forward, software certifications that were offered by erstwhile HPE will no longer be available for enrollment on PearsonVUE (…)”
Could you replace that word by the right one, please?
Thanks in advance.
@Ricardo: Thanks for your kind words.
Acc to Merriam-Webster,
Does that make sense now?
@Ankur Thanks for your reply. You’re absolutely right. I must confess that I had never come across that “erstwhile” word and so I wrongfully assumed it was a typo. My apologies and thanks for clearing that up.
No problem Ricardo.
