As of 31 December 2023, the Esri Certification Program completed exam development efforts to re-brand all Specialty level exams as new 2024 Associate level exams to improve the test-taking experience and provide candidates with enhanced exam score reports.
- You can view more information about specialty level exams here, or learn more about the new score report enhancements here .
What are the changes?
All Specialty level exams are now pending retirement and will be retired as of 30 June 2024. View the full list of upcoming exam retirements here and be sure to read our Exam Retirement FAQs here for more information.
As a result of the Specialty exams retiring, all Specialty Certification exam vouchers must be consumed on or before 30 June 2024. Specialty exam vouchers cannot be accepted as payment for any beta or operational exam.
Action Needed
- If you would like to use your specialty exam voucher to take a specialty level exam, visit Pearson VUE at your earliest convenience to select your exam and schedule your test appointment.
- Appointment times are limited and based on test center availability. We recommend that candidates visit the Pearson VUE Registration System to view available appointment options at least five business days before the desired appointment time.
