Steps for Select Certifed and Registered Certification Anniversary Renewal

Both the “Registered” as the “Select” Certification is valid for one year from the original Certification date. This means you have to re-new your certication every year.

Renew your Registered Certificaion:

1. The only step you have to take is read Cisco’s Indirect Channel Partner Agreement (ICPA): http://www.cisco.com/web/partners/pr11/pr193/requirement.html
2. And click-to-accept, you can do this by loggin in to Cisco’s Partner Registration Tool: http://tools.cisco.com/WWChannels/GETLOG/login.do

Renew Select Certification step by step:

1. 90 days prior to the anniversary date, the status in CSAPP changes to Re-Cert mode
2. 90,60 and 30-day renewal reminder notices are sent to your company’s partner administrator contact by Cisco
3. If you still have all the original job roles fulfilled and these individuals still remain within your company, you simply have to re-apply online. No further exams or training are required. However, if an employee who originally passed the SMB specialization exams has left your company, the missing job role(s) must be fulfilled before the SMB Specialisation and Select Certification can be submitted for renewal
4. Ensure that you have read ICPA (Indirect Channel Partner Agreement): http://www.cisco.com/web/partners/pr11/pr193/requirement.html
5. And login to CSApp to click-to-accept ICPA and submit the re-certification (http://tools.cisco.com/WWChannels/cpapp/selectGeo.do)

Note: if your Select Certified and SMB Specialisation anniversary was before 1st August 2008, you will have achieved the SMB Specialisation before the SBCS(Smart Business Communications System) training and exam requirement was introduced.

You will now be required to complete the:

• SBCS Account Manager (AM 650-173 SBCSAM) and
• Engineer exams (EN 650-178 SBCSEN)

in order to renew your SMB Specialisation and Select certification. The foundation SMBAM and SMBEN exams are still valid, assuming the roles are still filled by the original individuals. Contact your Comstor account manager for course information.

Congratulations! You have renewed your SMB Specialisation and Select and/or Registered Certification for 1 further year. We hope you enjoy the continued benefits of being a Cisco Select Reseller and/or Cisco Registered Partner for another year!
