Media Cloud Accredited Professional Practice Exam
Exam Number: 3770 | Last updated 14-Apr-26 | 569+ questions across 6 vendor-aligned objectives
The Media Cloud Accredited Professional exam validates your ability to implement Salesforce Media Cloud for media and entertainment companies. It covers ad sales management, campaign planning, inventory management, and the revenue operations workflows that help media organizations sell, plan, deliver, and reconcile advertising across linear TV, digital, streaming, and out-of-home channels.
A full 25% of the exam targets Ad Sales Management, covering proposals, orders, rate cards, and pricing configuration. At 25%, Inventory and Campaign Planning represents the single largest exam section, covering inventory management, audience targeting, and media planning. The exam allocates 20% to Revenue and Billing, covering delivery tracking, reconciliation, billing schedules, and make-goods. Combined, these sections account for the lion’s share of the exam and reflect the skills employers value most.
The remaining sections balance the blueprint. At 15%, Integration represents the single largest exam section, which spans ad server connectivity, traffic systems, and programmatic integration. The exam allocates 15% to Industry Data Model, which spans accounts, campaigns, orders, and media-specific objects. These areas may carry less weight on paper, but they often underpin the complex scenarios that distinguish passing candidates.
