Test your typing speed>>Does a typing certificate count on a job application?
There is no single official typing certificate. Whether an employer wants proof is in the job posting. Roles with a lot of typing, such as data entry or admin, often test candidates themselves.
| Proof | What you get | Time | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fast Forward Typing certificate | PDF with name, WPM, accuracy and date | 1 to 5 minute test | 5 €, included in the course |
| Proctored test at an approved center | Certificate from a supervised test | one appointment | depends on the center |
Our certificate is an unproctored online result. Private employers can see your speed at a glance. Some public employers in the US do not accept it. California state jobs ask for a proctored 5-minute test with at least 40 WPM, issued within the last four years. The City of South Gate does not accept internet typing tests at all. If a posting asks for a proctored test, an approved testing center is the right route.
How to get the most out of it:
- Take the 5-minute test. It shows your sustained speed, not just your peak.
- Aim for at least 95 percent accuracy. On the job, errors cost more time than a slower keystroke.
- Put the number on your resume, for example "Touch typing, 55 WPM, 97% accuracy". What each job asks for is in typing speed for jobs.
