CCIE certifications and Cisco Specializations are valid for two years. Valid certifications may be renewed indefinitely or extended. Without timely renewal, individual career certifications expire or become inactive. Note: Extension occurs when a certificate holder advances to the next level. Recertification—How To renew certifications, holders must register for-and pass-the appropriate Cisco recertification exams. Recertification exams are regularly offered worldwide. Valid certifications may be renewed indefinitely. For CCIE certificate holders, renewal requires passing a recertification test and attending specific sessions at Networkers conferences. For CCNA and CCDA recertifications, the exam is simply the current version of the appropriate exam. The Professional level has different recertification exams for CCNP and CCDP certifications. Questions for these exams are drawn from the several exams currently in use for each certification. For Specializations, the recertification exam is simply the current version of the appropriate exam. (Network Management has two exams.) ___________________________________ UPDATED Posting Guidelines: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/guide.html FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
