MCSE Expiry

Hijaz

[FONT=&quot]Dear Sir/Madam[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]I am student[/FONT][FONT=&quot] in Microsoft Learning and willing to complete the whole MCSE 2012 Server Program. I recently discovered through a article that MCSE Server Infrastructure and similar courses will be retiring on 31 March 2017, it also stated that the current MCSE course exam can be taken up to 31st December 2016.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Since the actual expiry date is 31 March 2017 will I be able to do the the MCSE 70-413 and 70-414 after December 2016 before the expiry date which is on 31 March 2017. Please help me with this issue and please guide me on how the future MCSE programs will function.[/FONT]


[FONT=&quot]Thank You[/FONT]

Unless you're a beast or a cheater... There is no way you can do all these exams before 31st December.

Just get the MCSA 2012 and do an elective and you'll get it:

If I read this correct are you saying all 2012 MCSE exams cannot be taken after December 2016?

Some MCSE certifications (such as MCSE Server Infrastructure) and their corresponding exams are retiring.

The MSCE Server Infrastructure exams themselves are not retiring. It is the MSCE: Server Infrastructure name and what certs qualify. It is changing to: Find out about the replacement certification, MCSE: Cloud Platform and Infrastructure. You will notice, that the 413 and 414 are both still on the list. Also now you only need 1 to get MCSE, I believe.

MSCE: Communication and Messaging are changing as well. But certs themselves are not retiring.
