CCNP Migration

[Dim16]

Hi all,

I got CCNP Switch (300-115) in December 2017 and was studying for taking exams in September for CCNP Route (300-101).

After the announcements for the new certifications, I see that having both Switch and Route on 24th February 2020 gives you "Cisco Certified Specialist - Enteprise Core".

My question would be, for how long would that be valid and how much time would I have to take an exam of one of the concentration exams to get the new CCNP Enterprise Certification.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

If you passed CCNP Switch on 2017 you will have 3 years to complete the other exams, your exam will be valid, check the replacement after Feb for your pending exams. My suggestion about the CCNP Enterprise is verify the announced topics on the Cisco website and you could wait for the Cisco Press study material, as I have seen it will include DNA and programmability.

it is almost Panic Time; normal 3-year rule still applies. your exam/cert is valid for 3 years; after that, re-take or take 1 same or above level exam  to renew cert.  Note: Exams names and numbers will change after Feb23rd,
