F5 UNITY+ partner program
The UNITY Partner Program offers the most compelling suite of partner relationship options in the industry.
F5 has decided to remove Certification attainment as a requirement from the Unity+ Partner Program for the coming year. While certification attainment will be removed as a metric for FY23, F5 will reevaluate the criteria for FY24 once certifications have been refreshed. All other program requirements will remain the same. Please note, that while Certification attainment will not be measured as a Unity+ program requirement for the coming year, reps and SEs’ individual Certifications will need to be maintained if they wish to keep their F5 Certified status.
Why is F5 changing these requirements?
Technology is evolving, and customer buying requirements are changing. As such, the Unity+ program is evolving to meet the changing needs of our partners and to align with our strategic direction. We also want to provide clarity, reduce complexity, and more accurately quantify partner contribution.
These changes will take effect in early February, and these revised requirements will be used as the criteria for our FY23 partner audit which will occur in October 2023.

Examinations can be sat via Pearson Vue examinations and can be attended in Person or Online.
