Hello,
Thanks to @MarkusWeik for your posts. I’d like to provide some additional information about the SAS Certification and Skills Directory.
To be transparent, SAS is in the process of transitioning to an updated version of SAS Certification Manager. This new platform will provide a more user-friendly experience, is optimized for mobile viewing and will introduce some new features for our certification candidates. When planning the move to the new platform, we noticed that the soon-to-retire directory was underutilized and had some shortcomings. The new directory, powered by Credly, expands to not only searches for certifications, but for skills and badges related to SAS learning and development activities. The new directory is also a step towards a bigger plan to create more opportunities that allow for sharing and verifying of both learning and certification activities but most importantly to connect our learners with potential employers and interested parties.
Currently, as noted by some other users on this thread, both directories are still active. We plan to send notifications to users when the platform transition is complete later this year. That notification will include info on how to adjust settings to meet the goals you have for being noticed or verified.
As always, we’re open to any feedback you may have and appreciate you connecting with the SAS Certification Community.
