The Infrastructure Investing Certification is a free advanced-level, 25-minute skill test from Science of Apps. It tests infrastructure investing — core, core-plus and value-add strategies across transport, energy, utilities and digital infrastructure, regulated and contracted revenue models, project finance and PPP structures, valuation with long-dated cash flows and inflation linkage, and risks including construction, demand, regulatory, political and climate risk — written to the World Bank PPP Resource Center, G20 Global Infrastructure Hub, OECD, IEA and DOE references for 2026 and 2027. Score 70% or more on its 25 questions to earn a verifiable Infrastructure Investing certificate (SOA-II). Every question is based on published standards and research — including Public-Private Partnership Resource Center (World Bank), Global Infrastructure Hub (G20 Global Infrastructure Hub), Net Zero Roadmap (International Energy Agency) — and each answer is explained with its source.

Yes. The questions are original scenarios written by Science of Apps, and each one is based on a public source you can read: Public-Private Partnership Resource Center (World Bank); Global Infrastructure Hub (G20 Global Infrastructure Hub); Net Zero Roadmap (International Energy Agency); Damodaran Online: valuation data and teaching (Aswath Damodaran, NYU Stern); ILPA guidance and templates (Institutional Limited Partners Association); Pensions at a Glance (OECD). The source is shown under each question and linked in the answer review. Science of Apps doesn't copy questions from other tests.

Five skill areas with five questions each, drawn from a bank of 10 per area so a retake brings new questions: Infrastructure Sectors and Strategies (Core vs value-add, Sectors and Investor types); Revenue Models and Contracts (Regulated asset base, Availability payments and Demand risk); Project Finance and Structuring (SPVs and non-recourse debt, Debt sizing and Risk allocation); Valuation and Returns (DCF for long-life assets, Discount rates and Inflation and leverage); Risks and ESG (Construction and operational risk, Regulatory and political risk and Climate resilience). Every question is an original scenario written to the 2026–2027 standard, with the published source named under it.

Long-lived assets with contracted or regulated cash flows, often linked to inflation, fit long-dated liabilities. Infrastructure can offer stable yield and diversification, though illiquidity, leverage and regulatory and political risks must be managed.

Core assets are operational, with low-risk contracted or regulated revenue (for example, regulated utilities). Value-add involves construction, expansion or operational turnaround risk in pursuit of higher returns.
