Attention, Adobe educators.
2024 Adobe Certified Professional certification
exams are officially here!
We are excited to share that the 2024 Adobe Certified Professional
certification exams are now available. While there are no changes to the
exam objectives, candidates will now be able to test on the latest version of
Adobe Creative Cloud software.
As a reminder, on June 30, 2024 we will be retiring the 2021 versions of the
Adobe Certified Professional exams. The 2022, 2023, and of course 2024
exams will remain available.
Any Certiport Authorized Testing Center that currently delivers 2021 exams
should prepare to deliver a more recent version of the exams instead.
Please review the Adobe Program support page to ensure all technical
requirements are met for Compass exam delivery.
