Mindy_RosenthalAccording to the April Courseware Title Plan the MS-4014 update has been pushed out to the end of May. How does that impact AI-3018 retirement?
Hi Vitaly
AI-3018 will retire as of today. 4/30 -- the content is outdated and cannot be extended past the retirement to still deliver. I apologize for any inconveniences this may cause. MS-4014 is delayed due to some constraints. Stay tuned, if the Trainer assets are ready earlier, they will certainly be uploaded to the LDC.
Thanks for your patience on this.
Yes, so that creates a challenge because there is a one-month gap where we don't really have in-market courseware that fulfills this Copilot set of learning goals.
The content in the current MS-4014 is just as outdated/current as the current AI-3018 ... they were last updated within the same timeframe, in December 2024 and January 2025.
I am delivering this topic on May 6th. AI-3018 cannot be used because it's out of market. And we do not have the new replacement MS-4014 yet. Hence the dilemma.
I think retirement timeframes should be very carefully synchronized with replacement timeframes. Microsoft courseware folks are usually doing it quite well, so it's puzzling what happened in this particular instance.
