Recently Todd  blogged about why you should register for MySQL 5.6 certification exams now: http://mysqlblog.fivefarmers.com/2013/10/04/why-you-should-register-for-mysql-5-6-certification-exams-now/ and i also think that now is a good opportunity to renew or take a new mysql certification.

The most interesting point in my opinion is that you can save a lot of money if you take the exam NOW! The exam price is 50 dollar (39 Euro) till 14.12.2013.

So, if you want to update your, probably years old, mysql certification now is the time!  You can search for a test center and register for the exam here:

Be aware that you won’t get your results directly but after a few weeks. Also there are about 150-220 questions! Phew! All information about the exam can be found here:

I’ll take the exam in November and will let you know my opinion about the exam.
