Citrix Certification

As a CCA in PS3, I recently rec'd an email from Citrix inviting me to upgrade.

In short, although the CCA in PS3 will expire shortly, the CCA certification status will remain valid and recognised.

"According to our records, you are currently a Citrix Certified Administrator for MetaFrame Access Suite 3.0 and a Citrix Certified Administrator for MetaFrame XP Presentation Server. As a part of the new, recently announced Citrix certification structure, these certifications are scheduled to expire on May 15, 2009. Upon expiration, your certification status will continue to be recognized; however, it will no longer be considered current. In addition, your Certification Manager transcript will be modified accordingly with the “Expired” status.

Update Now
We encourage you to update your legacy Citrix XenApp certifications to a new CCA for Citrix XenApp 5 before the expiration date above. Doing so will enable you to maintain your certification status as “Current”. Choose the certification path that’s right for you and click on the links for more details.
