Take your career to the next level

The identity security industry is expected to grow at an annual rate of 14.5% through 2028.1 To support this growth, the need for skilled professionals to develop, implement, and administrate identity security solutions is at an all-time high.

Our knowledge credentials & certifications can prepare you for a career switch, deepen your existing security experience, and set you apart from other professionals. SailPoint offers two ways to validate and recognize your skills.

Which path is right for you?

SailPoint Knowledge Credentials provide the opportunity to gain new skills that can apply to your current role or to prepare you for a new project, or job search. Credentials are earned by completing a training path and passing an unproctored exam. Successful candidates will earn a certificate citing their achievements and a shareable badge.

SailPoint Certifications are role-based, that is, they validate your existing expertise. They require years of practical, hands-on experience as an identity security professional. While training is highly recommended to prepare for certification, courses alone will not sufficiently prepare a candidate for a SailPoint certification. Training must be complemented by skills learned on-the-job. Candidates must past a proctored exam to become SailPoint certified.
