Certifications in Salesforce have grown massively in the last few years. Just a few years ago there were around 8 certifications you could achieve. There were people in the ecosystem that had acquired all of these. Now, however, there are over 35 Salesforce certifications on offer. This is predominantly due to the rapid growth of Salesforce as well as the acquisition and release of new products. The increase in the number of certifications doesn’t seem to be slowing down either. There have been plenty of new Salesforce certs for 2020 introduced.
Here are some of the latest Salesforce certifications that have been released in the latter half of 2019, and new in 2020. This post also includes some certifications that haven’t been officially announced.
