Loading ...The table below lists all the valid ways to become certified. Note the expiration date of the options using ISCW and ONT. Candidates in the process of obtaining their CCNP, who wish to certify before the new TSHOOT exam becomes required, must pass all the required exams on or before July 31 2010. After July 31, 2010, all CCNP candidates will be required to pass the TSHOOT exam.

There is an official announcement here though it doesn’t show yet on the main CCNP page. More information on the announced changes can be found here.
You can now mark July 31 as the focal point, the end of the road for the current track.
The one thing that does come out from this new information is that even if you fail to complete all 4 exams by July 31 you will not lose everything. The only catch is ISCW & ONT being bundled for the TSHOOT exam but BCMSN and BSCI will count for a new track exam. not a bad deal.
