Is it worth taking a free and open‑book certification?

[WESLEY DE SA TELES]

If you follow the process: absolutely!
The fact that a certification is free or open‑book does not diminish its importance.
Study the tool, complete the official training, and understand the message they want to convey.

My case:

I never imagined that a video‑recording tool could offer so many productivity features like Loom.
Understanding how Rovo can help teams deliver value with less effort: AI is just technology, how you use it is what makes the difference!
Forge is an incredible Serverless Rapid Development Platform for building applications in the Atlassian ecosystem --> Powerful.

My advice:
Enjoy the journey, engage with the community, learn something new.
You'll be surprised by your progress!

Thanks @Ree Kent !

Well done @WESLEY DE SA TELES !

And I absolutely aggree with you. It still takes time and dedication to learn new skills and having a way to show that have completed the objectives set by a third party (in this case Atlassian) helps validate it.

I'm 2 out 3 for the certificates and looking forward to Jira & Confluence Essentials after that.

Happy learning!

Excelent progress @Carike Blignaut-Staden
Pursuing Jira certification can be a big step in your career.
Good luck on your journey!

Congratulations!

I completely agree, I really enjoyed the training for all 3 of these and I love sharing that I earned a new Atlassian certification on LinkedIn. 

I also used these to get me warmed up again before I had to take my Power Platform Fundamentals certification and to get me back in the flow of things before starting on my ACP-520 that I am currently working towards now.
