Does anyone know why the Marketo Specialization Exams are only available until 1/31/19? Are they being discontinued?

Hi Malik Zafar​,

Yes. They are being discontinued. Although folks who are specialized in the respective areas, will still continue to be recognized! So its a great opportunity to complete as many specializations as you can, while the opportunity sill lasts. Here are all the details that you need - Marketo Specializations - Last Date to take Specialization Exam​ . Below is a screenshot from the hyperlinked discussion.

Thanks for your answer Karan!

Do you know how one can get certified as a Marketo Certified Solutions Architect? Is that only available during certain times of the year or to certain individuals?

Thanks!

Hi Malik Zafar,

The MCSA is only open to Marketo Partners! So if you are a Marketo Partner, then you are eligible for MCSA. Here is the URL to the MSCA application and minimum requirements - Marketo MCSA Certification Requirements . You can also find further answers in this thread - Marketo MCSA .

There is no specific time of the year. If you are a Marketo Partner, Once you meet the minimum requirements mentioned in the Marketo MCSA Certification Requirements  doc, then you can apply by following the procedures mentioned in it.

For Non-Marketo partners, the Marketo Specializations are the highest level that one can attain at this point. Hope that answers your queries. Please feel free to let me know in case of any further queries.

Best Always,
