    I would like clarifications on the subject matter, what happens to holders of the MD 100 and 101 certificates? Would it be mandatory for them to sit and write the new exams MD102 in order for their respective certifications to be accepted and then have new certifications thereafter? Mindy_Allison

    Is there a reason the release date shifted 2 months? (first date on both was 1st of July)

      Hi Matthias --

       

      Yes, there is reasoning behind the delay. Unfortunately, the exam/cert system was undergoing maintenance, that postponed the release. Beta exam results were not available until the system was functioning appropriately again. 

       

      I apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.

       

      Thank you!

  • Beta exam results are normally available a couple of weeks after the exam is released

      Hi Julian --

       

      That is correct! The team is hoping for a fast turnaround time of results, considering all beta tests have been completed, and just need to be scored appropriately, due to the system undergoing a full maintenance.

       

      Thank you!
