Hello! I have recently started preparing for the Salesforce Certification Exam. Do you have any tips and tricks that you found to be helpful?
Thank you in advance!!
#CertificationsHi everyone, Last year, the option to take Salesforce certification exams online was disabled on my account. Since then, I have only been able to see the testing-centre option. I would now like to take my Salesforce certification exams through the online

I recently passed this certification exam with a great score. It’s definitely a challenging exam, so don’t get discouraged by failing once. I’d focus on the exam objectives, hands-on Claude practice, and updated practice questions. Reviewing your weak areas before retaking can make a big difference. ExamsPilot can also help with your exam preparation. Good luck on your next attempt!
Long story short, I have downloaded my certificate, but I lost it when I reset my PC. Is there a possibility of reissuance? I managed to secure a photo of it so I can provide details such as Certificate ID and date of issue.

If you mean a Salesforce virtual internship completion certificate, I’d recommend contacting the program or platform that issued the certificate. Explain that you need it reissued and provide your name, internship details, and any original certificate or completion proof you have. They should be able to confirm whether a replacement copy can be generated.
I'm trying to reschedule my cerification exam and I can't find the option to do it. Does somebody know how to do it?

Hi all,
I'm sorry to report I just failed my first attempt at the Admin certification. I scored well across the board except in two areas: Productivity and Collaboration, and Agentforce, which brought me down. I went in feeling confident, so it was a bit of a surprise.
I'm now looking for additional study material focused on Productivity and Collaboration. A Trailhead search turns up 138 results, which is a lot to sift through on my own. Has anyone taken this exam recently who could point me toward the courses or modules that are most relevant to what's actually tested? Note that I have already taken the Admin beginner and intermediate, as well as the exam prep.
Thanks in advance!
#Salesforce Admin #Certifications
Hi Jim, sorry to hear about the near-miss — sounds like it was close.
Good news: Productivity and Collaboration is officially only 7% of the exam (per the Salesforce Admin Exam Guide), so it's a small, well-defined target, not something you need 138 modules for. It covers exactly four learning objectives:
- Activity Management (Tasks, Events, activity reminders/reports)
- Chatter (feed, groups — public/private/unlisted, following, security)
- Salesforce Mobile App capabilities
- AgentExchange/Agentforce use cases
That last bullet explains why Agentforce and Productivity/Collaboration are both weak spots for you at once — Salesforce folded AgentExchange/Agentforce use-case questions into this same exam section on the current version of the guide, so it's really one combined content area, not two separate ones.
Best single resource: the official Trailhead module "Study Up on Activity Management and Collaboration" — it's built specifically to prep this exact exam section (not general Trailhead content), and includes scenario questions and flashcards on Chatter, activities, and mobile app capabilities:
https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/administrator-certification-prep-applications-activities-and-mobile/study-up-on-activity-management-and-collaboration
Since you've already done beginner/intermediate + general exam prep, this targeted module (30–45 min) plus the flashcards should be enough without re-covering ground you already know — focus your remaining study time on Configuration & Setup and Security & Access instead, since those carry roughly double the exam weight of Productivity and Collaboration and are worth more of your remaining prep time per point.
Hi,
I registered for the AI Associate exam and downloaded the Lockdown Browser app through the Chromebook store since the Download URL only downloads the Windows version. It doesn't say anything on the Salesforce website about using a Chromebook for a Certification exam. Does anyone know if I could use my Chromebook to take the certification?
Glad to see my Salesforce exam result came back as a pass. I used VALIDITEXAMS during my prep and felt much more confident going into the exam.

Hi Trailblazers!
I'm currently preparing for my next Salesforce certification and wanted to check whether there are any active opportunities for free Salesforce certification vouchers following Dreamforce 2026
.
I'm particularly interested in official opportunities such as:
• Trailhead Quests offering certification vouchers
• Post-Dreamforce learning challenges
• Salesforce or Trailblazer Community events
• Certification workshops or challenges
• Any other current Salesforce-sponsored voucher programs
If you've recently come across an active program or event where certification vouchers are available, I'd really appreciate it if you could share the details or registration link.
I'm actively working with Salesforce technologies including Agentforce, Einstein and Salesforce platform development, so I'm looking to continue expanding my certifications.
Thanks in advance, Trailblazers!
