The Beep Microbiology Lab Assistant certification checks whether you understand safe work at a microbiology bench — collecting and handling specimens, preparing and incubating culture media, sterilising with an autoclave and flame, and the basics of the Gram stain.
It also tests biosafety and the reasoning behind routine steps: what each biosafety level means, why indicator tape does not prove sterility, how over-decolourising misleads a Gram stain, and how culture plates must be treated before disposal under the BMW Rules.
The assessment takes about 7 minutes, is auto-scored, and produces a certificate with a unique verifiable ID you can share with anyone. Beep is backed by Shark Tank India, Google for Startups, Microsoft for Startups and AWS, with over 1 lakh people certified across 300+ fields.
