Check Your Certification Status

You can check your certification status and maintenance requirements on your Trailblazer.me profile.

For any Architect certification, if you have a status of “Maintenance Due” or “Expiring Soon,” this means one of the maintenance units is not completed. As long as you complete the maintenance badges required by the due date, your Architect certification will remain active.

Note: all units in the Architect Maintenance badge must be completed regardless if you have one or more Architect certifications.
