Slack Certified Developer

The Slack Certified Developer Exam is designed for those who already have experience developing on Slack. We recommend that you have at least six to twelve months of experience working with Slack's APIs, and you have built an app on Slack before. You should be well-versed in the Slack Platform and with how to build apps. We’re rooting for you and want you to be successful, so please make sure that you’re attempting the exam at the right time in your journey.
