Appian Partnership Requirements

I was wondering if obtaining Appian certifications (Analyst and Developer) is a prerequisite for establishing a partnership with Appian. My company has a vast history in developing systems and applications for a wide variety of clients and organizations. Additionally, we possess substantial experience in low-code environments such as Oracle APEX.

Is the certification a compulsory requirement for the partnership. can anyone please clarify the specific requirements and certifications needed to pursue an Appian partnership?
