Adobe Commerce Recertification Policy

Beginning July 1, 2021, all Adobe Commerce certification levels will have a two-year recertification requirement. Certified individuals will be able to recertify by successfully completing a renewal certification exam. This marks a significant change to the Adobe Commerce (formerly Magento) credential program.
