NCDA auto extension with NCIE

Did you know, if you’ll pass NCIE (DP or SAN) AND you still have not expired yet NCDA, you automatically get certification extension (from higher-level certification) for NCDA with the same dates as NCIE?

To check:

• Go to https://www.certmetrics.com/netapp/
• On Home tab, click on your NCDA ONTAP & NCIE

In my case, both NCDA ONTAP & NCIE SAN ONTAP get 2018-Oct-23:

 

 

• NetApp Certified Data Administrator, ONTAP (NCDA ONTAP)
• NetApp Certified Implementation Engineer – Data Protection Specialist (NCIE DP)
• NetApp Certified Implementation Engineer – SAN Specialist, ONTAP (NCIE SAN)
