Awarded for completing Dependency Management and Security in Java: Maven and Gradle and passing its exam, demonstrating the ability to read a resolved dependency tree, control transitive versions safely in both build tools, find code that coordinates do not describe, and operate a repository and verification policy across a large Java estate.
Certificates are designed to be checked, not just displayed.
The credential is valid for 12 months from issue. Its public page states the expiry date, and renewing means passing the current exam again — so the credential always reflects the current material.
