Duplicate Cisco ID's - Will this create problems later on?

in CCNA & CCENT
I registered for a Cisco account before I began a CCNA class (I wanted to read documents on the site and I guess you need to log in to do that).
When I enrolled in the CCNA class, my instructor created a new one for me, or I had to do the process over again, can't remember. Anyway when I requested my discount voucher, the email said the discount would apply to only to the ID associated with NetAcad.
So my question is, do I just abandon the Cisco ID I created before the CCNA class? Will there be issues in the future if they see there are two people with my name/address? Should I contact Cisco and ask them to erase the first ID?
Thanks

There shouldn't be any issues. Just make sure if you take any exams, you associate the certifications to only one profile. This actually happens a lot more than you think so it's not really that big of a deal. Decide which Cisco ID you want to keep permanently and stick to that one for all your future needs (certifications, education, employer associated contracts, etc)
