Citrix Education has announced the next generation of Citrix Certified Administrator (CCA) certifications and the retirement of the CCA for MetaFrame Access Suite 3.0 certification and the CCA for MetaFrame XP Presentation Server certification effective May, 15 2009. After May, 15 2009, the CCA for MetaFrame Access Suite 3.0 and the CCA for MetaFrame XP Presentation Server certifications will still be recognized by Citrix Systems but will be marked “expired”. Professionals that hold these certifications will be able to update their certifications to the new CCA for Citrix XenApp 5 certification.
In addition, the CCA for Citrix XenApp (Presentation Server 4) certification will be discontinued on January 5, 2009, but professionals who obtained this certification by passing the 1Y0-259 Citrix Presentation Server 4.5: Administration exam prior to the discontinuation date will have their certifications updated automatically to CCA for XenApp 5 for Windows Server 2003 as the 1Y0-259 exam will be the only exam requirement for the CCA for Citrix XenApp 5 for Windows Server 2003 certification. The CCA for Citrix XenApp (Presentation Server 4) will remain valid but will no longer be attainable. A CCA for Citrix XenApp 5 for Windows Server 2008 certification will also be available.
