We work to keep ThirdBadge useful and accurate, but certification programs change frequently. Exam numbers, prices, prerequisites, testing providers, renewal requirements, policies, and other details may change without notice.

Before registering for an exam, purchasing a product, or making an important certification decision, you should confirm the latest information directly with the official certification or testing provider.
