If you do not schedule and take your exams within the 180-day timeframe provided after purchasing your GECB bundle, the fees you paid will be considered forfeited. In other words, you will need to register and pay again if you wish to take the exam after the initial 180-day period has expired. So, it is important to keep track of the deadline and plan your exam preparation accordingly.

We understand that maintaining multiple certifications can sometimes come with significant costs. That's why we have implemented a membership policy to make the renewal process more affordable and convenient for our certified individuals.

With our membership policy, instead of incurring separate renewal costs for each certification obtained, you can enjoy the benefits of renewing all your certifications under one membership fee. When your certifications approach their expiration, you will have the option to renew them by paying a single fee of 149 USD, which covers a 3-year (36-month) validity period.

By implementing this policy, we aim to encourage professionals like you to continuously develop your skills, acquire multiple certifications, and enhance your career prospects without the fear of exorbitant renewal costs. This approach not only provides cost-effective maintenance of your certifications but also ensures that you can continue to showcase your expertise and commitment to professional growth.

If you have any further questions or would like more details about our membership policy and the renewal process, please don't hesitate to contact our support team. They will be delighted to assist you and provide you with the necessary information regarding the renewal of your certifications and the associated membership benefits.
