will retaking net+ renew A+

mikeman10

I just have a quick question on the renewal of the exams. My A+ expires 5-8-15 and my Net+ expires 3-28-15, will simply retaking the Net+ exam renew A+? I was wondering cause I've never payed for the ceu program.

Yes, it will.

Similarly, taking the Sec+ by then will get you a new cert and renew BOTH the Net+ and A+.

Thanks for clearing that up but I have just one more thing to ask. Will I still have to pay for the ceu program for this to work?

DoubleNNs

No. Because you're updating w/ other CompTIA certs the expiration dates will update themselves automatically w/o any additional action or cost on your part.

However, say you you want to use a Cisco cert to update your CompTIA certs. Because you're crossing vendors, you will have to pay the CEU fee and submit the transcripts to CompTIA in order for them to be accepted.
