We’re excited to share an evolution of the Archer certification program designed to better support the diverse roles across the Archer community.

Our established three‑level technical certification path—built for practitioners who design, configure, and maintain Archer solutions—remains unchanged. This track continues to provide deep, hands‑on platform expertise for technical professionals.

A New Certification Track for Business Leaders

To better serve executives, managers, and decision‑makers who rely on Archer for governance, risk, and compliance oversight, we’ve introduced a dedicated certification track for GRC business leaders.

This track focuses on strategic understanding, value realization, and leadership—not technical configuration. It provides a credential aligned to how business leaders use Archer in their roles.

Why We Expanded the Program

As Archer adoption grows across organizations, we’ve seen a clear need for certifications that reflect different responsibilities. This updated structure allows us to:

• Preserve technical rigor for platform practitioners
• Provide business leaders with a strategy‑focused learning path
• Ensure each certification aligns with real‑world roles and outcomes

Learners can now pursue credentials that match their day‑to‑day responsibilities and long‑term career goals.
