Hi all

I am looking to certify my self on Atlassian and would like some advice on where is the best place to start, what the cost structures are, is there a "Full Access" to all certifications-type of case, etc? I am currently very familiar with [Cloud] Jira, JSM, Confluence and basic Bitbucket and would like set my knowledge in stone with some certifications

I saw https://university.atlassian.com/student/activity/2227941-atlassian-cloud-foundations#/page/670ebb67a1887954d16cbce1 and wondered if that is my 1st stepping stone into being certified in all-things-Atlassian :)
Please advise?

Thank you

Yatish

@Yatish Madhav As others pointed out, we have a distinction between the associate-level (ACA) and professional-level (ACP) exams, in terms of complexity, duration, and cost of the exam. For those starting out, an ACA is always a good idea to understand the exam logistics, determine your preference for online vs in-person locations, and to get a feel for the types of questions asked. That being said, you can start with any that you feel most comfortable with, in terms of content, once you've looked at the exam pages. Since you are very familiar with Jira, the Jira Software Essentials exam seems like a logistical start. Good luck to you. And come back here to let the community know what you decided and how you did!
