If you need the retake
PECB says a failed attempt can be retaken within 12 months of the first attempt at no extra fee. Use the gap to revisit the domains where scenarios felt uncertain, and book the retake when you can explain each audit stage and its outputs from memory.
After the first year
PECB credentials last three years, and maintenance fees apply from the second year under PECB's policy. See how long PECB certification is valid.
Practitioner note: Compare what each price covers, such as the retake, mentoring and support, before you compare the totals.
