@Jim_Anderson I've chosen Learning Pathway 2, enrolled and could able to login through Customers & Prospects.

I could see the course "Advanced Data Engineering with Databricks" , 7 sections are there in this course. which section I need to complete to be eligible to 50% discount ?

Databricks Performance Optimisation - for this I could see Performance optimization with Spark and Delta Lake
Databricks Streaming and Delta Live Tables - which section of course I need to complete ?

Also, can I start the course now and will this be counted for discount ?

If you are looking to participate as a prospect, then please note that the course materiel will only be visible from April 9 - 30 since the content typically sits behind a paywall.

Thanks @Jim_Anderson for the info, wanted to know do I need to register explicitly for this virtual learning fest ? No right, correct me if I'm wrong.

Re: Virtual Learning Festival: 9 April - 30 April

Jim_Anderson — Mon, 17 Mar 2025 17:36:02 GMT

Thanks for raising this. To confirm, please complete all 7 sections of the Advanced Data Engineering with Databricks course. Please note, only course completions between April 9 - 30 will be considered eligible for the incentive.

Hi,
If I start some courses of the 7 before April 9 but I complete all of them between April 9 - 30, I'll be eligible ?
Thanks

Normally, if you are a normal individual user (prospects) click on the prospects link. If you don't have an account create one and finish the courses using the link provided on the page here. This is how I did last time. Very good courses

Re: Virtual Learning Festival: 9 April - 30 April

shash_0806 — Mon, 17 Mar 2025 18:28:15 GMT

@basit_siddiqui yeah account I have created, courses I need to complete during the fest window right apr 9 onwards , cause I cannot access the course vids rn

Re: Virtual Learning Festival: 9 April - 30 April

basit_siddiqui — Tue, 18 Mar 2025 12:57:46 GMT

Yes, you are right — this is between April 9th and 30th. I completed ML courses during the last festival, but Databricks has since introduced new courses and retired the old ones. I’m planning to pursue the Data Engineer Professional & ML Professional certification once I receive the voucher.

Re: Virtual Learning Festival: 9 April - 30 April

Jim_Anderson — Tue, 18 Mar 2025 17:40:33 GMT

No, so long as you complete one of the listed learning pathways between the lister dates then you will be considered eligible for the incentive. To confirm, there is no additional steps required to register 🙂

Re: Virtual Learning Festival: 9 April - 30 April

Jim_Anderson — Tue, 18 Mar 2025 17:40:58 GMT

Thanks for the feedback! I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the courses 🙂

@Jim_Anderson ,I registered for Professional Data Engineering course. Can I start it now and complete it between April 9-April 30 as it looks like course is accessible? Will I still eligible for $100 certification voucher?

Re: Virtual Learning Festival: 9 April - 30 April

soorajj — Sun, 23 Mar 2025 04:42:58 GMT

@maminederkaoui did you get it know if above can be done?
