Extend your Check Point CCSE certification ONLINE!

Check Point CCSE certification extension is available online on Pearson VUE!

Check Point provides a series of Internet based exams that candidates can take on their personal computers without having to travel to a Pearson VUE testing center.

Two of these accreditation exams within a two-year period will extend your CCSE certification for 12 months.

156-727 – Threat Prevention
156-728 – Gaia Overview
156-729 – Advanced IPS
156-730 – SandBlast
156-733 – Mobile Threat Protection

Language: English
Exam Availability: Exam must be completed online within 2 days of purchase

Of course, Check Point still encourages CCSE certified individuals to upgrade their certifications using either the 156-820 exam for the CCMSE certification or the 156-115 exam for the Check Point Certified Security Master certification.

If i have the SandBlast certification and another accreditation exam and THEN get the CCSE certification, will it count or the time extension?

The 2 accreditations towards the CCSE extension were designed to come after getting the CCSE not before.

Thanks,

Jason

and what is the ruling on taking one of the one-day training tracts while at CPX? the old line was it adds 6-months to your certs. is this still true?

Re: Extend your Check Point CCSE certification ONLINE!

Jason_Tugwell — Wed, 14 Mar 2018 19:09:14 GMT

The post-conference training at CPX will extend your certification for 6 months provided that you registered with the same email as your certifications, and your certification is current and not expired. We are still processing the list of attendees but feel free to email me directly to check your extension.

Thanks,

Tug

And what about the exam duration?

Thanks, Efrem

Efrem,

The accreditation exams are 40 questions / 60 minutes.

Thanks,

None of the accreditation's have specific Study Guides, but the courses and material for IPS, SandBlast and Threat Prevention is available from our ATC's.

Any others would be based on general product knowledge and being that they are un-proctored, they are essentially "open book" exams.

Thanks,

Tug

Really nice!

Hello Jason,

If I complete the two open book exams before the 30th I can have a extention to my ccse. However, my ccse has expired already. Would completing these certify me once more and bring back my ccse into a valid state or is this just for individuals with valid ccse certifications?

Thank You
Adrien

Tug: Does the pre-conference training at CPX 2019 again extend all participants certification by 6 months? The usual extension is not mentioned this year on checkpoint.com/cpx

Re: Extend your Check Point CCSE certification ONLINE!

Jason_Tugwell — Thu, 31 Jan 2019 18:32:45 GMT

Danny, the pre-conf training will not extend certification this year. However...take a look at the alternative.

Thanks,

Tug

Hello,

is this still valid? I want to renew my CCSE , so I wanted to take 2 of these exam for extending the validity, but I can't find more info about this.

Re: Extend your Check Point CCSE certification ONLINE!

Jason_Tugwell — Fri, 11 Sep 2020 22:30:54 GMT

Sorry this was stopped in 2018.

See: https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/Training-and-Certification/Accreditations-extending-the-CCSE-End-of-Life-June-30-2018/m-p/700

So to renew a CCSE use the R80 CCSE Update exam (#156-915.80)

This and other questions are addressed in our Education Services Information & FAQ – sk163417

Check it out.
