in CCNA & CCENT
Hey all, this is probably a stupid question but I'm curious. I currently have my CCENT and it expires later this year. If I were to retake the exam now and fail it, will it invalidate what I currently have, or will that remain active through its current expiration date. Thanks!

Failing an exam will not effect your current certifications, it will remain active through its current expiration.A.A.S. in Networking Technologies

Sorry to hijack but I think my question is relevant.
Supposed my CCNA expires in Sepember, I take any CCNP paper and fail.
Will it be extended for another 3 years? -

Cisco certifications generally expire every 3 years but it depends on the specific certification track and you need to pass an exam to renew your certification if it's about to expire/renew it:
Certifications - IT Certification and Career Paths - Cisco Systems
This link should answer all your questions depending on the Cisco certification and the track path your interested in or are currently pursuing (CCNA, CCNP,etc..)
