View your Trailblazer profile and ensure your certifications are displayed.

For each certification displayed, you will see:

How to Understand Your Certification Status

You will see your certification status next to the certification name. Here’s what the different statuses mean:

• Active: Your certification is up-to-date, and you have no maintenance due at this time.
• Maintenance Due: Your certification has maintenance due. You can see the “This field is only visible to you” section for details on your maintenance and the due date.
• Expiring Soon: Your certification has maintenance due very soon and is at risk of expiring. You can see the “This field is only visible to you” section for details on your maintenance and the due date.
• Expired: Your certification expired because your maintenance wasn’t completed on time. You can see the “This field is only visible to you” section for more details.
• Retired: The certification has been retired from the Salesforce Certification program. You can see the “This field is only visible to you” section for more details.

Important Note: Be patient if you recently completed a maintenance module and your status says “Maintenance Due” or “Expiring Soon”, as it can take up to 1 business day for the changes to appear.
