We're excited to announce an improvement to our ACE Program. Starting this week, you can now obtain the ACE Associate certification, the starting point for many in your multicloud networking and security education, without needing a remote proctored setup for your final exam. Instead, you'll take the exam in the same self-paced and independent format as the rest of the course.

Here's why this update is a game-changer:

1. Convenience: By removing the proctored exam requirement, we've made the ACE Associate certification process more seamless than ever. Now, you have the freedom to complete the certification at your own pace and take the final exam at a time that best suits you.

2. Accessibility: Without remote proctoring, you do not need the camera and microphone setup, Cirrus account, or remote proctoring extension previously required. The final exam is also free of charge, and if you don't pass, you can make two more attempts at no additional cost.

3. Empowerment: Achieving the ACE Associate certification showcases dedication to excellence and professional development in multicloud networking. It's a powerful way to demonstrate expertise and earn the trust of employers and your peers in the industry. Being ACE certified opens doors to exciting opportunities and sets you apart as a skilled professional.

Registration remains the same: Use the code acemulticloud when registering for the ACE Academy, and the cost of ACE Associate training will be reduced to $0. At the end of the course, follow the instructions in the final module to take the free final exam directly within the self-paced training. It's that simple!
