I hadn’t heard about this until Dan’s email but it seems to me the idea isn’t so much about providing a way to recert without taking the exam but to let folks who are paying for the classes to expand their expertise get credit for it.

<div class="">Given the current state of the collab written (it’s driven me to Emeritus) I imagine this will also drive up consumption of some of these classes.</div>

<div dir="ltr" class="">I recommend you look through the credit options. So far most of the courses I found range between $500 and $1000 and they only give you a max of 40 credits. So this could be a great idea but execution not so clean. It's still significantly
cheaper to just pay and take the test again versus the $3k or so I estimated it will cost me to take classes and pass based on points alone.

<div class="">I'll look into this more, but as long as there's no catch (like $5,000 in cost), this is a great alternative to taking the written.</div>

<p class="MsoNormal">Some of you might be interested to hear that Cisco has announced a new method of renewing one’s expert-level certification. While taking a written exam is still an option, those needing to renew their CCIE/CCDE will be allowed to enroll
themselves in select classes, online and in-person, which will count towards renewal credits. Renewal will require 100 credits in total and applies to both active and suspended status cert holders.<u class=""></u><u class=""></u></p>
