What is happening and when?
We are retiring the Consul Associate certification. This means the Consul Associate exam will no longer be available to take starting July 15 2026. It will not be replaced with a new version.
Timeline:
July 13 2026: Last day to schedule a Consul Associate exam appointment
July 15 2026: Last day to complete a Consul Associate exam and earn the certification
Why retire Consul Associate?
Consul is used in a wide (and growing) range of use cases. Because of this, a single certification cannot comprehensively or fairly validate the breadth of real‑world Consul skills practitioners apply across industries and environments.
What happens to my existing credentials?
Your Consul Associate credentials (badge and certificate) will not be affected. They are valid until they expire.
