Validity of Colombian cedula when it's in an older format

Validity of Colombian cedula when it's in an older format - People Lying on Brown Rock Formation Beside Body of Water

I currently hold a Colombian cedula that was issued in 2010. It has holograms but it is not the latest cedula format. I am a dual American/Colombian citizen. Would I be ok once it’s time to leave Colombia? Or do I have to have the latest cedula format?? I’m getting conflicting info from family members and I even called the dc consulate and they couldn’t give me a confident answer.
