Here are some key differences between these certifications other than experience levels:

  • Exam format: 50 multiple choice items
  • Time allotted to complete the exam: 100 minutes 
  • Registration fee: $125 USD
  • Passing score:31/50, or 62%
  • Badge Provided: Professional Badge

Adobe Target Business Practitioner Expert :

  • Exam format: 68 multiple choice items

Adobe Target Architect Master :

  • Exam format: 50 multiple choice items
  • Time allotted to complete the exam: 100 minutes

Note: All these certifications also have key differences in objectives and scopes covered on the basis of the difficulty level of the certification. Would encourage you to go through the objectives and scopes section of all these certifications to understand more detailed differences in the topics covered.

I hope it helps.

Thank you.

 

This is definitely confusing since Adobe Target Optimization Specialist Credential Exam isn't mentioned on this page - https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/certification/program/technical-certifications/at/at-overview.

 

Do you know if all exams will be available at Summit?

Yes @ajasullivan , 

I believe all the certifications given above will be available at Summit. 
You can find the complete list of certifications which are available at summit here : https://summit.adobe.com/na/exams/ .

Under the Adobe Target Certifications section in the page given above, you can find all the four certifications : 


Also, As you correctly mentioned, Adobe Target Optimization Specialist Credential Exam isn't mentioned on this page :  https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/certification/program/technical-certifications/at/at-over... , you can find "Adobe Target Optimization Specialist" just by clicking on "Qualified exams provided by ADLS" tab in the left section at the bottom : 

 



I hope it helps.
