The training material is constantly being updated as each RouterOS version is updated and therefore the MTCRE qualification is only valid for a period of three years from date of issue.

Student Prerequisites:

• MikroTik state that students MUST have passed the MTCNA exam at some point in the past (i.e. it's OK if the certificate has expired) before being allowed to take the MTCRE Exam, however this does not preclude them from attending the course only.
