Salesforce Accredited Professional vs Certification?
Salesforce Accreditation and Certification are two different but related concepts. Accreditation is a recognition of a professional’s expertise and experience in Salesforce products and solutions. Accreditation is granted to professionals who have demonstrated in-depth knowledge of Salesforce through passing rigorous exams that test their skills in different areas of Salesforce.
On the other hand, certification formally recognizes a professional’s ability to work with a specific Salesforce product or solution. Certification requires passing an exam that tests your skills in a particular area of Salesforce, such as Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, or Marketing Cloud. Salesforce offers many certifications covering different aspects of Salesforce, and obtaining a certification can help you establish your expertise in a specific area.
