Frequently asked

Is the Application Security Foundations Level 2 course free?

Yes. The course and its certificate of completion are free, with a free Semgrep Academy account required to enroll.

Do I need to finish Level 1 before taking Level 2?

No. The vendor does not enforce a prerequisite. Level 2 sits above Level 1 on the Application Security Foundations ladder, so Level 1 is a natural starting point, but nothing requires you to take it first.
