Cisco Continuing Education (CE) Program

There used to be lots of free CE courses you could do to get credits for renewing qualifications.

I can't find any at all now.  Does anyone know if there are any free courses left that can earn credits?

Here's one that is still free and worth 11 credits. You will need a CCO account to access it.

Here's another one that is worth 4 credits:

The free ones are still there, but you have to hunt for them.

Cisco Live in person is worth 25 credits.

I have been looking into gathering CE points aswell lately. During my research I've been pointed to this link. He's listed some free courses, where some of them are still available. I haven't checked them all.

Also there's a DevNet Associate certification course that's worth 48 points. At the moment there's a promotion where you can get a renewal plan for $49/month. With your experience @PhilipDAth I'm pretty sure you can eat your way through that course pretty fast, if not skip en entirely, and go the the final quiz (if there is one, that is...).

Late to the party on this.

When looking into this myself I found that the free courses gave so little CE credits that it was hard to justify the work required to build up enough.

I opted to wait for the Black Friday sales (Cisco learning seems to do one every year) and purchased SCORv1 and DEVCORv1.
Not what I would consider cheap but they were relatively quick to complete.
