Who Speciality certifications are for
Speciality certifications are for professionals who want to validate deep, focused expertise in a specific discipline, tool, or method — regardless of which other tiers they've completed. This tier is ideal if you already work in the field and want to prove mastery of one particular area rather than broad role competency.
