The AI job boom is here. Are you ready to showcase your skills?
Here's how we should have presented this information:
Which exams are being replaced?

Note that the certifications associated with these exams are NOT retiring. If you have the Window Server Hybrid certification, you will keep it if you continue to renew it; if you fail to renew it, it will expire, and you will have to re-earn it by passing the new exam.
Because fundamentals certifications do not expire, this certification will remain active until two years after Microsoft retires it; there are no plans to retire either of these certifications at this time.
