The Benefits of MongoDB Professional Certification
Recently, we released the MongoDB Certified Professional Finder. This new tool serves two purposes: it lets
MongoDB Certified Professionals
have a presence on our site, and it helps companies find and hire MongoDB experts.
You may already know that we offer
Professional Certification
for both developers and DBAs. But what are the benefits of certification? Since everyone loves lists, let’s look at the top five benefits:
Prove Your Skills
. There are a lot of MongoDB users out there. How do you stand out? MongoDB Professional Certification as a DBA or Developer demonstrates that you’re an expert. Certification is recognized by recruiters and hiring managers as proof that you know what you’re doing.
Get Listed on the MongoDB University Site
. Only certified professionals are listed in the
MongoDB Certified Professional Finder
. Try browsing through the finder – you’ll find MongoDB experts all over the world, with a wide range of technical skills. Plus, it provides a secure and private way for people to contact you if they’re interested in your profile. Of course, a listing is optional – you can stay private if you’d like.
Join Our Advocacy Hub
. Certified professionals also receive an invitation to join the MongoDB Advocacy Hub. Through the Advocacy Hub you’ll gain access to the latest releases, events, and MongoDB news, boost your learning and development through quality content and best practices, and get exclusive invites to speak at MongoDB events.
Use the Certified Professional Badge
. Of course, you can and should put MongoDB Professional Certification on your resume. But sometimes it’s nice to have a shorthand. You also get access to our MongoDB Certified Professional badges. With a badge on your LinkedIn profile, anyone can tell at a glance that you’re a MongoDB expert.

. Certified professionals will get 30% off of ticket prices to
