Author content is one that I will definitely be interested in. It may be for the folks that help review the exam content, which I think includes some people outside Cisco.

<div dir="ltr" class="">It's kind of both for me, Ryan. Between the time it takes to prepare for the exam and the cost of the exam, some of us might find it cheaper to earn the credits. Especially if you're already going to Cisco Live regularly (I'm slated
to earn 19 credits this year), and you author content regularly (not really what I'm known for, but I've written a thing or two).

<div class="">I haven't had my CCIE long enough to get Emeritus like you, but I was very close to just letting it go inactive, because I no longer believe in the process. This change might just be the breath of life for the CCIE. Maybe...<br class="">

<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.

<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>
