According to a Cisco spokesperson, the current versions of the first
three exams above will continue to be available through Sept. 30,
2003.
The spokesperson could not say what plans, if any, Cisco has for
the title's fifth exam, 9E0-131 Cisco Safe Implementation (CSI).
As far as the new numbers for some of the exams, Cisco Marketing
Programs Manager, Internet Learning Solutions Group, Nader Nanjiani
said that the numbers have been changed to reflect that passing
those exams now count toward CCNA and CCDA recertification. Nanjiani
said that eventually virtually all professional and specialty Cisco
exams will count toward recertification, but that in the meantime,
the 642- moniker is being used to reflect this as new exams roll
out.
