- Prerequisites
- None stated for the on-demand catalogue.
- Format

- Length
- One year of access under the annual pass.
- Renewal
- No renewal or recertification requirement is published for this entry.
- Accreditation
- No accreditation body is named. The credential name commonly cited as Belkasoft Certified Examiner could not be confirmed — the current site language is becoming a certified Belkasoft user, so treat the BCE label as unconfirmed.
- Who it suits
- An examiner whose lab runs Belkasoft, or one who needs a large block of CPE credits from training they will actually use.
- Audience
- Working practitioners · Law enforcement & investigators

Strengths
- Ten courses for $2,999 is a low per-course cost for vendor training, and 62 CPE credits is a substantial contribution to any renewal cycle.
- Covers mobile, cloud and SQLite internals, not only disk — a broader spread than most single-vendor programmes.
- A large free webinar and knowledge-base library to evaluate first.
Limitations
- Entirely tool-specific: it proves competence in Belkasoft's suite, not forensic method.
- $2,999 a year is a serious cost for a solo practitioner, and access is annual rather than permanent.
- The certification's official current name and price could not be confirmed, which makes it hard to put on a CV precisely.
- No accreditation body is named.
