Hi Tug, thanks for the certification update info
One question regarding expired CCSM, according to image we need to recertify on CCSE; is this correct? or should be CCSM?
Thanks for the Update, is right that I can take the course prior to the 31.01.2020 and take the exam after the 31.01.2020 so that my CCSE will be extended for one year?
I have valid CCSM and 4 ISAs (CCTA,CCAS,CCMS,CCVS) .How can I obtain CCM Elite.
ISA must be obtained after the program start in 31-JAN-2021 to qualify.
is it possible to get high res versions of the logos?
Similar to the corp logos that is scalable within illistrator or similar so they are sutable for printing.

Am I right? When having a valid CCSE and passing 2 specialist exams you are getting CCSM without a specific CCSM exam or the need to visit an extra CCSM course?
This doesn't seem to be right. As per the FAQ the exam alone isn't enough. It might be required to take the course as well!
Hi Danny,the key here is the date of commencement...
Commencement of what? The course or the exam? Is the course really required or is the exam enough? I look how to advice my trainees starting from February 2021. Two of my trainees did the CCTE course last week. When are they able to sit their CCTE exam or do they have to take the course again after January 31st, 2021? Are they really required to wait with their exam until February 2021 to make it count for the new cert model?
The new program starts in Feb-2021
This doesn't answer my questions.
Exam completion in or after Feb-2021 is my understanding
In this case it seems that the course isn't required at all.
Correct, once the program commences the way CCSM can be achieved will change per above.
Thanks for clarification! 👍
Is there a specific reason, I'm not able to download the training datasheets from the course links?
