Why is absolutely everyone getting the business analyst cert? It’s our free or something?

Because it is supposedly really easy to get without studying if you have a few years of experience

My employer reimbursed for passed certs and I didn’t have to study at all… so total financial and time commitment was the ~40 mins it took to register and take the exam.

There was a lot of hype because Salesforce is finally recognizing what is a critical role in any implementation, but it’s completely undermined by how easy the cert is to get (like just about all of them)

Because at salesforce we get reimbursed for all salesforce cert attempts so why not.
