Query on Expiration of Microsoft Data Analyst Associate Certification

Good day,

Pls, I would like to know why the Microsoft Data Analyst Associate Certification expires after two (2) years of being Certified. Also, what do I do when It expires?

Thanks for your anticipated response,

Brgds.

Hi Benedict,

All New Role-based certifications including Microsoft Certified: Data Analyst Associate will be valid for 2 years after you completed all required exams under the certification path.

On December 15, Microsoft introduced a new approach to help learners stay current. Those who have an active certification expiring within six months can renew their certification annually – at no cost – by passing a renewal assessment on Microsoft Learn.

When you’re eligible to renew your certification, you’ll be notified via email linked with your Microsoft Certification ID (MCID). You will receive up to four email reminders before your certification expires. After you have renewed your certification, you’ll no longer receive reminders until it’s time to renew again.

To learn more, you may visit Renew your Microsoft Certification.

In case we do not receive a response, the thread will be closed and locked after one business day. Please be advised that after the case is locked, we will no longer be able to respond.
