Hi Waynette,

thank you for creating awareness for this PA certification. 

Currently there is only one certification available for Planning Analytics and the focus is on Analysts. Any plans to provide certifications for Developers and Administration in the near future?

For example Cognos Analytics provides a broader offer of possible certifications.

kind regards
Bernhard
