Why do the Microsoft Dynamics Nav 2013 Certification exam has been withdrawn?

Its a nature's course that to give place to any new thing in life, an old thing has to be compromised. Similarly in the changing scenario and day by day updating technology, Microsoft Dynamics is gaining ground with its new version of Microsoft Dynamics Nav 2015 and newly arrived version of Microsoft Dynamics Nav 2016. 

The main reason for the withdrawal of Navision 2013 certification is to introduce a new certification exam for Microsoft Dynamics Nav 2015 which is likely to be launched soon. Still there are no news confirmation for the same by Microsoft. For the time there are no Certification exams being conducted for the Microsoft Dynamics Nav Professionals.

Microsoft has been updating its technology time to time and side by side replacing certification for the old technologies with the new ones. Here are the list of exams which are retired by Microsoft for Dynamics Navision from the beginning of time:
