Did Adobe Discontinue the ACE Program for After Effects?

I was searching through the certified expert exams, and noticed that the ACE exam for After Effects is gone. Did they discontinue it? I can't seem to find anything online about it, and it would be quite a shame if they got rid of it.

contacting the company that is responsible for these exams about an ACE exam got this response:

"The Adobe After Effects ACE exam has out of date content does it is not available to be schedule online until the new version of the exam is released. If you would like to schedule the old version exam, currently it is open to schedule only over the phone for undetermined period. You can find the number to contact us on your region by clicking here: Customer Service :: Adobe ."

Thanks! That's what I was looking for.

Be careful as the questions in the exam seem to refer to After Effects CC 2014, I took it and failed by a couple of points the other day, partly because of several outdated questions on Cinema 4D light, Warp Stabilizer etc.

I was kind of annoyed as it's €150 x 2 (assuming I pass next time...) and I now have to revise a load of things that aren't very useful (3D ray-tracing etc.).  Also the screengrabs in the examples they use are completely unreadable, I felt like appealing but thought it would be quicker (and a bit more dignified) just to take it again.
