Description
The only official certification offered by Grafana Labs is the Certified Grafana Associate exam. It is designed to validate a candidate’s fundamental knowledge of the Grafana platform as a whole, rather than focusing on a single component like Loki.The exam’s syllabus is divided into several key domains, with a specific topic distribution for each. While the exact weighting can change, the general structure and topics remain consistent.
