Platform Implementation Certification

[Adam Rosenbaum]

Hello community!

I am attempting to take the ServiceNow Implementation Cert class. It is only offered as Instructor Lead and OD but not as a path. The problem is that it is 500 USD and I am unemployed at the moment trying to not lose my house and support my family. Can anyone suggest any way that I can take this? Is ServiceNow that desperate to make money they won't offer any other alternatives?

Hi Adam, unfortunately there are costs for most core On Demand training, IE the courses that provide the certification vouchers and I believe there is also an additional cost for sitting the exam.
ServiceNow do offer a program that provides support and training to people in need, but acceptance is subject to a number of criteria and I think excludes anyone with existing SNC certifications but could be worth checking out.

Also perhaps try a post in the community 'Jobs' forum, there is a shortage of ServiceNow experienced resource in most areas and your community profile shows that you have already put quite a bit of time and energy into the NowLearning.

All the best.

Hi @Adam Rosenbaum ,

Which certification are you trying to take? All mainline certifications should be available on-demand as far as I know. But please notice, that even though that the training is on-demand, I still think is 300USD for a training and certification.

If my answer has helped with your question, please mark my answer as accepted solution and give a thumb up.

Best regards

Right now I am attempting CSM Implementation. Any of the Implementations are $500 for on demand. They used to be free with the path course which no longer exists. I am OK paying for the exam but paying 500 for the cert and 300 for the exam is a bit steep. I just wish ServiceNow made it easier to their their platform.
