“The Advanced Architect badge is a real differentiator between those who have taken an instructor-led course and passed the SnowPro Core exam and someone who has years of experience and a deeper technical understanding of the Snowflake platform — and I’m glad Snowflake has recognized this by developing these advanced exams.”
—Simon Peck, Principal Data Architect, Data Engineers
“Certification provides a lot of value. First, it helps me to make sure that I validate my skills. And in my role, where I interact with a lot of our mutual customers, it gives [my clients] a sense of confidence in me, that they’re working with an expert to provide the solutions.”
—Shankar Ganapathy, Principal Architect, Microsoft
