Raiser's Edge (and NXT) Certifications

Stacey Brake

I was wondering if there were more advanced levels of certifications beyond what is listed in Training Central. I've seen (over the years) other users with other types of Raiser's Edge certifications but can't find anything other than the annual professional certifications. Is that all there is now? Just curious if more is out there. Thank you!

Yeah, there used to be different tests and levels but Blackbaud changed the certification structure a few years back. Now it's just the annual Fundamentals and Professional exams, although they exist for every BB product, so if you use ResearchPoint or Financial Edge as well as Raiser's Edge, you can take certification tests for those as well.

Thanks Daniel! That's what I thought. Take care.

There are also a couple of "best practices" certifications for fundraising and marketing. https://www.blackbaud.com/training-support/training/blackbaud-certification
