At Okta, we are all committed to our customers’ and partners’ success, from start to finish. Our Education Services team lives and breathes this, investing in new programs to support IT professionals and leaders on their path to success. As part of the ongoing effort, we recently introduced our Okta certification program. Now, we are excited to have Kpayah Tamba join the team to take Okta certifications to the next level. Kpayah spent the first 11 years of his career at Citrix where he ran the certification and exam development business, and he later launched AppDynamics’ first certification program. We sat down with Kpayah to learn more about his background, his philosophy on why certification matters, and his plans for Okta certification programs. Tell us about your background My professional background is quite interesting when you consider what I do, but then again, many Electrical Engineers could probably say.
