It seems a "new" certification will be available soon...

It doesn't look a great deal difference from the current version just a minor change, at least its not a platform change so current NGX certifications are valid.

That is exactly correct. R65 includes some new features, but is still an NGX product. The big advantage for current CCSA NGX holders from the R60 version is that you can take the CCSE NGX R65 exam and be R65 certified. You do NOT have to retake the CCSA NGX R65. The same will be true of the new CCSE Plus R65. The certifications are forward compatible.

The major difference between the R60 and R65 exams are that new job models changed where we placed some topics, and a vastly expanded item pool.
