Have you considered earning your certification to validate your ability to support your team and organization with this technology? To help you plan your career journey, we’re kicking off a new series of blog posts to explore the value and benefits of Microsoft Power Platform certifications. In this post, we’ll focus on some of the highlights of our certification portfolio, which spans from fundamentals to role-based certifications that validate key Microsoft Power Platform skills. We’re here to help you discover the career path that’s right for you—whether you’re just starting out with Microsoft Power Platform, looking to advance, or wanting to change to a new focus. When you pass an exam and earn your Microsoft Certification, that’s a validation of your skills and experience. The combination of these and a globally recognized, industry-endorsed Microsoft Certification sends a career-building message to employers. Your certification can even give you a boost of confidence and recognition as you advance your career. In later posts in this series, we’ll dive deeper into each of the certifications that we highlight here, to help you further explore and choose the certifications that are right for you and your career journey. THE BENEFITS OF CERTIFICATION Let your skills guide you as you investigate the different Microsoft Power Platform certifications available to you. A Microsoft Certification validates that you have the skills that organizations are looking for when they hire and advance employees. These certifications provide a pathway to success by starting with the foundations and then providing multiple avenues that validate deeper technical skills. Plus, Microsoft keeps certifications up to date based on market and industry demands. Just as you use certifications to prove your skills, organizations can use them to identify the talent they’re looking for. They can even help you achieve promotions and raises. For example, 61 percent of respondents in the 2020–2021 Microsoft Dynamics Salary Survey from Nigel Frank believe that certifications give you an edge in the job market. Many respondents reported a salary increase after they achieved a certification—an average of 22 percent. Certifications can give you career flexibility and promising earning options. The Global Knowledge 2020 IT Skills and Salary Report found that IT professionals with certifications, on average, earn more than their peers without them. Interestingly, the survey found that the more certifications a professional holds, the higher their average salary. Certification, combined with your drive and abilities, can help to open career doors for you. THE FUNDAMENTALS CERTIFICATION Consider a fundamentals certification as the first milepost on your certification journey. A great way to call attention to the breadth of your Microsoft Power Platform abilities is to earn the Microsoft Certified: Power Platform Fundamentals certification (pass Exam PL-900). This baseline certification proves your flexibility in using Microsoft Power Platform skills to improve your team’s productivity. If you’re new to the workforce, having a fundamentals certification on your résumé can set you apart.
