Hello.

I was in the process of completing my SEO certificate for my internship. I came to check in today to re-take my exam and I was met with the message that the SEO course is turning into AEO.

All my progress gone. Is there anyway to still get this certificate?

Thank you,

Kalea

Hey @kmtgates,

Thanks for bringing this to the community!

To answer your question, our SEO certifications were officially retired on June 23rd. Unfortunately, if the certification wasn’t fully awarded before that date, the course can no longer be completed.

However, we have some exciting news! We just launched two brand-new AEO certifications today. You can find these here!

Thank you. Any recommendations for other places that will give an SEO certificate?
