Introduction

Adobe certifications generally expire after two years. To stay current, the Adobe Credential Program offers renewal exams—shorter tests that focus on the newest solution capabilities as well as the things you already know. Renewal exams are meant only for those who have an existing credential that is about to expire—you can’t take a renewal exam if you don’t have the original certification.

The Adobe Certified Expert - Adobe Experience Manager Sites Business Practitioner Renewal exam guide provides potential candidates with information they need to prepare for the certification exam.

Adobe certification exams are developed with the participation of subject matter experts worldwide, following industry standards in developing fair and valid tests. Visit our FAQ page for more information.
