Why Avaya Structures Certification by Product and Level
Avaya's certification structure reflects the genuine complexity of its broad product portfolio rather than a single generalist unified communications credential, Avaya certifies specific competency for specific products at specific skill levels, recognising that deploying a contact center platform requires genuinely different, deeper knowledge than basic administration of the same system. This structure means candidates should identify not just their target product but also the appropriate level (ACIS, ACSS, or ACDS) matching their actual role responsibility, since attempting an ACSS or ACDS exam without the foundational ACIS-level knowledge for that same product would likely prove genuinely difficult.
