CheckMates Go:

The CCME exam does not have a prerequisite; it can be taken without the CCSA or CCSE.
However, the recommended path for certification would be:
CCSA -> CCSE -> CCME
This also would be supported as a knowledge/training path as well.
If you had an interest in working to CCSM or CCSM Elite, that path is required.
But we do have some engineers that get the CCME and no other certifications.
As always, feel free to email me if you have further questions.
Best regards,
Jason
