Today, Braze Learning is excited to announce the launch of a support program to provide free certification exams to those that have been impacted by lay-offs and reductions in the tech sector. As a way to support those who have been impacted by layoffs and reductions, Braze will be providing a supportive upskilling program in which these impacted individuals may qualify for free or reduced certification exams.

Braze Certification has pledged to provide 100 free certification exams.
