Certification is maintained by completing an update path within three years of the initial certification date. CCEE and CCIA certifications will no longer be associated with a specific product version, or be expired or retired. Instead, individual certification status will be determined by a candidate's action to complete an update path every three years. Further details can be found on the Advanced Certification Policies page.
