Maintain your Atlassian Certification

Outline

Atlassian Certifications are valid for 24 months.

To keep your Certification active, simply earn a related Atlassian Pro Skills Badge before the suspension date. Adding a Pro Skills Badge will extend your Certification for 24 months from the activity completion date. See details below. You cannot extend your Certification by re-taking the exam.

If your Certification expires, then you can retake the original underlying exam to re-earn the Certification. The exam cannot be re-taken during the Active or Suspended periods, it can only be re-taken after expiration.
