Frequently asked questions

Short answers to the questions people ask most often.

Account

I signed up with Google. How do I reset my password?
There is no iCompetent password for a Google account. Use Continue with Google to sign in.
Do I need a separate account for corp.icompetent.com?
No. The same account works on icompetent.com and corp.icompetent.com.
I see "Too many attempts".
Wait a few minutes, then try again.

Skills

A level is locked. Why?
Levels open in order. Finish every required item in the level before it. An item waiting for sign-off does not count as done yet. See Levels open in order.
Why can I not mark an assessment as done?
Assessments complete only when you pass them. Answer every question and submit; if you do not pass, try again.
My evidence file was rejected.
Use a PNG, JPEG, WebP, PDF, MP4 or WebM file of up to 512 KB. A compressed PDF or a smaller photo usually works.
My skill record expired. Do I have to do the whole skill again?
No. Pass the assessment again. This renews your record.

Courses and certificates

Why can I not see the right answers after a quiz?
The correct answers are shown once you pass. Review the lessons for the questions marked wrong, then try again after the short wait.
There is a mistake in the name on my certificate.
A certificate cannot be renamed after it is issued. Correct your name on My account, then use Start again on the course and finish it again to get a new certificate.
Someone checked my certificate number and could not see my name.
That is by design. Send them the secure link printed on your certificate instead. See Verify a certificate.
I paid but my course is not there.
Sign in with the account you bought with and wait a few minutes. If it is still missing, contact us. See Payments and refunds.
