CCIE Collaboration certification replacing CCIE Voice certification

Cisco recently introduced the !CCIE Collaboration certification: the Cisco Expert level certification that ensures knowledge and experience in collaboration solutions integration and interoperation, configuration, and troubleshooting in complex networks and the challenges of video, mobility, and presence as the foundation for workplace collaboration solutions.

This new certification replaces the CCIE Voice certification. The last day to test for the CCIE Voice written exam is 20th November 2013 and the last day to test for the CCIE Voice lab exam is 13th February 2014.

Cisco helps the expert Voice technical community transition to the CCIE Collaboration certification and will be offering 3 migration options as part of a CCIE Voice to CCIE Collaboration certification conversion program:

Option 1
Keep your existing CCIE Voice certification and recertify using the current CCIE recertification rules.

Option 2
Pass the CCIE Collaboration Written Exam and then permanently convert your CCIE Voice certification to a CCIE Collaboration certification between 21st November 2013 and 13 February 2016. Conversion program candidates would need to pass the CCIE Collaboration Written Exam and request a permanent CCIE Voice to CCIE Collaboration certification conversion by submitting an online Cisco certification support case.

Note that the CCIE Voice to CCIE Collaboration conversion program is a permanent and final certification conversion. Once a program participant's certification is exchanged and the new CCIE Collaboration certification is provided, he/she will not be able to use the CCIE Voice certification title any longer and will not be able to regain the CCIE Voice certification in the future.

Option 3
Pass both the CCIE Collaboration Written Exam and the CCIE Collaboration Lab Exam and then receive a CCIE Collaboration certification in addition to the previously earned CCIE Voice certification.

CCIE Voice holders who have passed the CCIE Collaboration written and lab exams will be granted both the CCIE Voice and CCIE Collaboration certifications. CCIE Voice holders with a valid CCIE Voice Written Exam or CCIE Collaboration Written Exam are eligible to register for the CCIE Collaboration Lab Exam.
