        SNOMED CT authoring level 1 certification recognizes your competence in performing basic SNOMED CT authoring tasks. This certification will be a prerequisite for advancing to the Authoring Level 2 course and certification, and is valid for 3 years.

        To achieve SNOMED CT authoring level 1 certification, you must pass the authoring level 1 certification exam. This exam includes a range of knowledge and skills-based activities to test your competence in SNOMED CT authoring (see authoring level 1 competencies). Please note:

        • During the exam you will be required to complete tasks using the SNOMED International training authoring platform. 
        • Prior to using this platform, you must accept the authoring platform terms of usage. 
        • You will be given access to the training authoring platform for up to three weeks prior to the exam to practice your authoring. 
        • Videos will be provided to show you how to use the authoring functionality in the training platform.
        • The certification exam will be electronically proctored to ensure that all students comply with the certification rules.
