As we gear up for Cisco Connect LatAm 2024 in the vibrant city of Cancún, Mexico, from September 10-12, I’m thrilled to share what we have in store for you in Learning & Certifications. Whether you’re on the ground in Cancún or streaming the action live, get ready to level up your tech skills, expand your knowledge, and connect with the tech community of like-minded professionals.
This year’s top themes are AI, Security, Cloud, and Automation. Also top of mind for today’s organizations, these rapidly evolving, transformative technologies all share a core element — the need for IT professionals with the skills to unleash their full potential. For IT professionals, it means continuing to learn and keep your knowledge current to stay ahead of what’s next — before your next challenge arrives.

If you’re already an active certification holder, passing an exam at Cisco Connect LatAm could also mean getting recertified.
How recertification works: Except for Cisco CCST certifications (which have no expiration), all Cisco certifications remain active for three years. During this 3-year window, you must complete recertification requirements. Once you complete the requirements for recertification, your 3-year window resets. Recertification requirements are defined by certification level (Associate, Specialist, Professional, and Expert). View Recertification Policy
The most common ways to recertify are passing exams and/or earning Cisco Continuing Education (CE) credits.
How to earn Cisco CE credits at Cisco Connect LatAm:
- Attend eligible sessions at Cisco Connect LatAm. (Don’t forget to get scanned!)
- Complete select Capture the Flag missions.
