Elevate Your IAM Career: IAM Certifications to Pursue in 2024
Are you prepared to take your Identity and Access Management (IAM) profession to new heights? Come along for an insightful conversation as we examine a wide range of IT certifications designed to enhance your knowledge and take your IAM journey to new heights of success.
IAM specialists are the foundation of cybersecurity because they make sure that access restrictions are strengthened against possible attacks and that digital identities are kept safe. Maintaining current qualifications is essential for success in this fast-paced business.
We present a carefully chosen range of credentials in this video that are intended to empower IAM professionals, such as:
The CompTIA Security+ certification Security+, which is widely regarded as a foundational cybersecurity certification, offers a strong grounding in risk management techniques, vendor-neutral security procedures, and IAM principles.
Vendor-specific certifications (such as Okta Professional and Microsoft Certified: Identity and Access Administrator): In today's complex IT environment, mastering vendor-specific IAM solutions is crucial. Examine certifications offered by top companies such as Cisco and Microsoft to expand your knowledge of IAM technologies.
IAM-specific certificates (like CIDPRO and Identity Management Institute): These are more recent additions to the sector, but they demonstrate your expertise in IAM. IMI offers particular IAM qualifications divided up by IAM areas, and IDPRO designed a fantastic certification.
And that's not all at all! Additionally, we'll explore identity and access management (IAM)-specific certificates, which offer you unique knowledge and techniques to succeed in this niche.

I have the CIAM-Certified Identity Access Manager certification from the Identity Management Institute, and I am working on the new Security+ now. I have seen a few companies asking for the CIAM cert. IMO, i think that is a good starter IAM cert to have as well.
I got security+ about 2 months ago no job offers yet so guess ill go for some IAM cert
I recently passed the okta certified administrator exam. I’m looking to get the Microsoft certified security compliance and identity fundamentals cert next. It looks like I’m on the right path. Great video.

Hi, is IAM very technical? I am not a very technical guy. What would you advise? Thanks

Hi! You don’t need to be technical to be successful in IAM. You can choose a route to help folks by helping customers understand their IAM issues, for example, help them understand what are their gaps with their onboarding l (joiner) process. You can then have a technical team fix/implement the solution. I’m a firm believer in knowing the core concepts of IAM first. All are non technical.
you might want to redo your youtube intro, your mic quality has gotten a lot better!

If you are looking to work on projects implementing/maintaining IIQ, I feel it’s nice to have. It helps validate you know what you are doing and it could help you when it comes time for salary negotiations.

I would work on understanding the core concepts of IAM. I made earlier videos to help you. Once you get a better understanding, I feel you can start to get more hands-on training with free options like Okta.

I do hate those job req that require that, it's 2024, I think they shouldn't require a college degree anymore. I've worked with some amazing IAM folks who don't have a college degree. My hope is even the govt stops requiring it for contractors. My suggestion is to look at the bigger consulting firms (booz allen, deliotte, PWC, EY, Accenture, etc.) to see if they have jr iam roles. Trust me I get frustrated with the market. I also feel that showing you know your stuff using projects, etc could be looked upon as work equivalency. I do hope it changes soon, because IAM needs people who want to do good and IAM only getting bigger.
