Recertification

To renew your NSE 7 in Secure Networking certification, complete one of the following:

• If your NSE 7 in Secure Networking certification has expired, you must pass the NSE 4 exam and pass one of the proctored NSE 5 or NSE 6 exams in Secure Networking within 2 years.
• While your NSE 7 in Secure Networking certification, your NSE 4 FortiOS certification and either NSE 5 Secure Networking or NSE 6 Secure Networking certification are still active, you can extend the expiration date by 2 years from the date you complete one of the following requirements:
  • Pass the next version of the NSE 7 exam in the Secure Networking track.
  • Complete the online NSE 7 recertification assessment if:
    • The certification assessment is available for the latest version.
    • You passed the proctored exam for a previous version.
    • The previous exam was taken within the last 2 years.
  • Pass any NSE 8 practical exam.

Passing an NSE 7 Secure Networking exam recertifies your NSE 1, NSE 2, NSE 3, NSE 4, NSE 5 Secure Networking, and NSE 6 Secure Networking certifications if they are still active.

Important : Renewing an NSE 7 certification requires an active NSE 4 and either NSE 5 Secure Networking or NSE 6 Secure Networking certification. If any of the recertification actions above are completed while the prerequisites are incomplete, the NSE 7 certification is not issued until the prerequisites are met. In this scenario, all the prerequisites must be completed within 2 years of the NSE 7 exam. The NSE 7 certification will be issued on the same date all the prerequisites are completed.
