HP StorageWorks ASE cert core exams?

[Darek_W]

I am currently Storage Works AIS and would like to start the ASE path. I found that one of the core exam hp0-402 is retired and is going to be replaced by the hp0-678.
The question is: how long will the hp0-402 be valid? I have already passed hp0-402 so I want to avoid passing hp0-678.

Best regards
Darek

Darek,

If you login to CertPro it should tell you how long the exams have left in them, if not ring your local HPCP team.

If the prerequistes of the ASE are being an AIS then keeping your AIS current through recertification points should be OK.

However, it appears the the HP0-678 is now an elective on the ASE route... -> http://www.hp.com/certification/emea/docs/Integration_Certifications_ASE_MasterASE.pdf
