AZ 300 Exam

Hi,

It seems there is some confusion on the Microsoft learning site about the road to get Microsoft Certified: Azure Solutions Architect Expert. under the Site https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/certifications/exams/az-300 or https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/certifications/exams/az-301 . Its states 

"NOTE: You will earn the following certification if you pass this exam: Microsoft Certified: Azure Solutions Architect Expert." So are both test needed or you can do either or? 

Someone, please clarify as this is a recent update to the site versus back in January where it stated you needed both

***Moved from: Certificates / Other***

Hello msanda77,

 

AZ-300: Microsoft Azure Architect Technologies will count towards the certificate Microsoft Certified: Azure Solutions Architect Expert together with the Exam AZ-301: Microsoft Azure Architect Design.

 

Note: These exams are retiring on September 30, 2020.

 

If the event that you are not able to take the AZ-301 before it retires, you can still proceed in taking the upgraded exams to complete the requirements. Any combination of AZ-300/AZ-303 and AZ-301/AZ-304 to earn the Azure Architect certification for two years after passing the first exam required for the certification.

 

For example, if candidates already passed AZ-300 and they pass AZ-304 they will earn Azure Solutions Architect Expert certification if they pass AZ-304 within two (2) years of passing AZ-300.

 

After passing the last exam required for any certification, please allow 24-48 hours for the new certification status to be updated on your transcript.

I guess that answers the question, since i know the development path in the past, the question was more related to whether the site was wrong or not.. Just wish Micosoft did not update the site to make it seem other wise. Maybe Revert it back to prevent Confusion?
