Assumed knowledge is a prerequisite this path does not include. You can take it separately, or start anyway if you already have the experience. Nothing is locked on this page; gating only applies once you are enrolled, and a locked lesson always states its reason.
02What you earn
ShareCo Certified Developer
A credential states the hours, the curriculum version and how it was assessed. The person reading it is a hiring manager, not you, so it is written for them.
ShareCo Certified Developer

- Specimen
- Hours
- 83 hr
Assessed by A 60-question server-scored exam at a 68% pass mark, sampled on the published Platform Developer I domain weightings and reported per section, plus a reviewed build. The answer key never leaves our servers, and the build is reviewed against the same criteria we use in engagements.
Salesforce CertifiedA ShareCo certificate is not a Salesforce certification. Sit the Salesforce Certified Platform Developer I exam next.
Specimen seal. A real credential carries a code and a verification link.
What it verifies
- 83 hours of assessed coursework across Apex, asynchronous work, components, integrations, documents and testing.
- Bulk-safe code, tested with 200 records rather than one.
- An integration whose secret handling was proved rather than asserted.
The capstone
Ship one operational surface: a board over a custom object with a real transition, a test suite, and a verification pass as the real user.
What it is not
A ShareCo certificate is not a Salesforce certification. We issue it, we say what we assessed, and we tell you what to sit next.
Sit the Salesforce Certified Platform Developer I exam with Salesforce. This certificate does not replace it.
Valid for 24 months from issue. Recertification is a shorter refresh against the current curriculum version, and it was designed in from the start rather than bolted on.
