I also took the PSM 1 some days ago (I created a article here on Dev with my study notes). I have a Solution Architect AWS certificate, Oracle Java Associate and Professional, and a Spring Framework certificate. Among others with less value

I don't make certifications because of the certificate itself. I do them because of every bit of knowledge that I get while studying. There are so much to learn, and there are some study paths to certificates, like AWS SA or PSM, that is mandatory to study a lot of more areas and topics that the ones strictly required for the exam.

I really don't care about the nice certificates that we get. I care about the knowledge.
