Hi, some random, unwarranted opinions here

These are my thoughts on the new glide certification program. Personally, I see it as a good way to assess my glide skills. There are areas and glide concepts am still learning.

How the certification is structured currently, I share my thoughts

For example, have say 100 questions covering actual use cases of glide. The questions cover wide topic area,u data types , UI , integrations, account, billing etc. Topics where I am short in I can go to the glide courses .

This way I can assess how well I understand a concept use rather than being a label for expertise . Rather than the end goal being acquiring a shiny pdf , the question should help one understand and assess their what topics he/she performs well in, which topics to polish up, and what more to learn.
