Starting in July 2019, we're updating several exam requirements. Please review the updated requirements or sign in to partner center to see your competency status and new exam requirements as they become available. Make sure to check competency requirements early—at least a few months prior to the beginning of your renewal window (anniversary date plus 30 days)—to ensure you meet current requirements at the time of your competency renewal. Please note that updated requirements are available only in partner center. If you have been invited to move your membership account from Partner Membership Center to partner center, make the move as soon as possible. Here is how.
