There seems to be a shift happening across a number of certifications and professional exams.More exams and credentialing programs seem to be emphasizing real-world scenarios, judgment, practical skills and AI-related competencies instead of just testing how much information you can remember.Personally, I think that could make certifications more valuable — but it also changes how you have to prepare. Knowing the material and being able to apply it under pressure are two very different things.For those studying for a certification or professional exam right now: are you noticing this shift in your exam?And do you think certification exams should test more real-world ability, or does that make the line between education, experience and certification too blurry?
