It makes sense. Less people will take the CCNA composite after passing the ICND1 though :P

Do you have a link for the cost change?

No. I'm enrolled in a Cisco Networking Academy, and we were told in class today.

Thanks for posting this. I wish I had knew this a while back. I would have paid for the test when

Not to late (I think) to buy a voucher that will still be good when you are ready to test.

You can also schedule a test. Then if you don't want it at that time, schedule for it later.

It keeps me knowing I have a test coming up, and keeps me motivated from loosing track.

Its all greed. There is no good reason for a price increase.

It makes sense that a test that covers both the ICND1 and ICND2 costs twice the amount of both tests put together.

Whats worse here in Australia is we get charged AUD$147 (US$151) for the ICND exams compared to the US$125 and thats direct from pearson.

Wonder if vouchers purchased in the US are valid for Australia ?

Its still not to late to buy vouchers.

Drat US vouchers are only valid for US ,Canada and Puerto Rico

I just looked on vue to schedule my ICND1 - it's gone up to $150 already.

I barely squeezed in at $125. I just need to schedule my ICND2 for the 3rd of February.

It looks like all the tests on the CC*A level went up.

Not quite. Your post implied that the CCNA Security exam price went up, but I just checked Pearson VUE and the 640-533 exam is still $250 like before. Were you referring to the CCDA exam?

jamesleecoleman

My bad. I thought the CCNA Security was $200. Yes I was talking about the CCDA too.
