Welcome to the March 2025 issue of Alibaba Cloud Academy's monthly post - helping you and your teams keep up with the latest news regarding Alibaba Cloud training courses and certifications.
This month, we bring you important updates on professional certifications, newly added self-paced eLearning courses, and enhancements to our certification offerings to support your learning journey.
As part of our continuous effort to align certifications with industry standards and evolving technologies, ACA System Operator will be replaced by SysOps Administrator (Associate) on May 16, 2025.
If you wish to pursue the ACA System Operator certification, we recommend purchasing the exam and completing it before this date. After May 16, 2025 , the ACA System Operator exam will no longer be available for purchase, and only the new SysOps Administrator (Associate) will be offered.
As a reminder, we have 3 certifications reaching their End of Life (EOL) on May 13, 2025. Users who have purchased these exams must schedule and complete them by May 13, 2025, as the exams will no longer be accessible after this date.
