HP launches webOS Certified Developers Program

Hewlett-PackardHewlett-Packard has launched a webOS development certification program. HP’s intention is to set a standard that companies can refer to when hiring webOS developers. HP will also provide developers with promotional and referral opportunities to grow their markets.

Certified developers will be listed on the “Third Party Developers” page on the Developer Portal and receive “webOS Certified Developer” graphic assets for use in marketing. Depending on certification level, developers may also enjoy priority support access and a highlight page on the Developer Portal.

Certification will be based on both quantity and quality of apps developed as well as relevant experience and training. Two levels are currently available. The first, webOS Certified Developer, requires five or more qualified apps and intermediate or expert mobile app development skills. The second tier, webOS Gold Certified Developer, requires 10 or more apps, expert mobile app development skills, the completion of a webOS workshop or equivalent training, and an approved webOS business plan.
