CCIP to CCNP Service Provider Exam

[moammarghani]

Hi all,

Could anyone tell me if CCIP exams can still be taken to get CCNP Service Provider status. What I mean is can someone still take BGP or MPLS exams and get CCNP Service Provider certification?

I know cisco is still accepting these exams if someone has already passed them in the past which is valid until July 2015. But I want to know can anyone who hasn't given them in the past still take them to be CCNP?

Thanks.

No, that won't work as the last day to test for BGP and MPLS was the 27th July 2012.
