Hello dears,

I've done M365 Messaging Administrator & Azure Administration Associate exams and the two certificates are available for one year ONLY, what is the reason? as per Microsoft policy these certificates should be valid for 2 years

    Hi @Anas Rawas ,

    in addition to Leon:

    Second, we’re updating the validity for role-based and specialty certifications to one year from the date you earned it. Starting in June 2021, this change will take effect for newly earned certifications.
