What happens when an exam retires?
Its retirement date is the last day you can take it. After that you can only book the version that replaces it. A certification you already earned on the old version stays valid for its usual term.
Can I still take the old version once the new one launches?
Usually, yes. Vendors tend to run both versions side by side until the old one’s retirement date, so you can finish what you started. Study for the version you’ll actually sit.
How current is this calendar?
It re-renders every day, so a launch or retirement moves from upcoming to recent on the day. The dates come from our vendor pages, which are checked every week against each vendor’s own site.
Which vendors does it cover?
CompTIA, AWS, Cisco, Microsoft, Google Cloud, ServiceNow, ISC2, PMI, NVIDIA, Databricks, Salesforce and Splunk. More vendors are added as their pages go live.
