Please be advised that inadequate completion violates the spirit and values of the Continuing Education program. Although a certificate of completion may be provided by your learning platform or provider once a certain threshold is met, to preserve the integrity of Cisco certifications, the Continuing Education program has the right to enact a higher standard of completion.
