Cisco extending all certifications by 180 days:

Cisco extending all certifications by 180 days:

We’re extending the expiration date for all active certifications by six months (180 days) as of March 16, 2020 in response to the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic. This covers all Cisco and DevNet Specialist, Associate, Professional, and Expert certifications as well as CCT and CCAr.
So, for example, if your active certification is set to expire on March 30, 2020, it will now be in an active status until September 30, 2020. Or, in other words, you have until September 30, 2020 to recertify.
Your expiration date will automatically be extended, and there is no action required on your part. https://learningnetwork.cisco.com/s/blogs/a0D3i00000360ZcEAI/were-extending-the-expiration-date-for-all-active-certifications

Online testing options for 2020.

I have had a lot of students ask me which exams they can take from home.

This is the current list I will change it as there are updates.

Home testing available now:
CAPM, PMI-ACP, Prince2, ITIL, AWS, Azure, CompTIA (Project+, Server+, Cloud+).
Home testing announced for April 2020:
All ISACA exams: CISM, CISA, CRISC,
The rest of CompTIA exams
No home testing options yet:
CISSP
PMP
How it works:
You install a program on your computer, you use your webcam to show the proctor your table, and the entire room to ensure no cheating can happen.
You show the proctor your 2 forms of identification.
You get recorded the entire exam and they will monitor your computer. Normally each proctor monitors 4-8 students.
