We wanted to circle back on <a
href="http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2019-January/001911.html">this
email thread</a> and provide an update on the Certified OpenStack
Administrator (COA) exam. We’ve listened to community feedback and so
has the OpenStack ecosystem. We are excited to collaborate with Mirantis
who has stepped up to donate resources, including the administration of
the vendor-neutral OpenStack certification exam now running on
OpenStack Rocky. <br>
<br>
We are planning to continue COA exam sales starting this <span
style="font-weight: bold;">Thursday, October 17</span>. If you’re
interested in becoming a COA, you will be able to buy an exam through
the <a href="http://openstack.org/coa">OpenStack website</a> or through
one of the many OpenStack <a
href="https://www.openstack.org/marketplace/training/">training partners
in the marketplace</a>. <br>
<br>
We are excited to continue growing the market of certified OpenStack
professionals and appreciate the community’s patience as we identified a
solution moving forward. <br>
<br>
Please reach out if you have any questions and we will continue to
update openstack.org/coa as the certification program evolves. <br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Jimmy
