Quick answer
SkillLift Labs certificates are claimed in three tiers: Skills, Applied, and Capstone.
You unlock them in order and claim each one from your course's Certification tab.
Certification tiers
| Tier | What it represents | Key requirement |
|---|---|---|
| Skills | You know the concepts | Pass all course quizzes |
| Applied | You can apply them | Complete all module projects + provide peer feedback |
| Capstone | You can build independently | Submit and pass the capstone showcase |
Tiers unlock in sequence: Skills -> Applied -> Capstone.
Track your progress
Go to your course -> Certification tab.
You will see a checklist and status per tier:
