Hi,

can I begin learning now, or should I wait until Mon, Jun 15, 2026, 08:00 AM PDT? Let me know.

Thanks for your question! For this initiative, only learning paths and courses completed within the event window count toward earning the certification voucher. Repeating a course you finished before the event window does not count.

Can I enroll in the course now and finish all the modules within that time frame in order to get eligible, or can I enroll now, complete 3 modules now, and finish the final module on that date?

By accident, I started and just finished one of the modules. I would like to know what happens now — should I create a new account, or what?

Apparently there is no registration to the event; you only need to register with the community and take the courses during the event period.

Hi,

I\m looking for appearing for two certifications, will only one voucher would be provided or its depends on number of module which we completed ?

Re: Advanced Learning Festival: 15 June - 06 July 2026

AnuMathew — Fri, 29 May 2026 06:26:05 GMT

I have completed the academy registration and opened the first module, but I haven’t started the learning process yet. Will this impact my eligibility to earn the certification voucher?

Re: Advanced Learning Festival: 15 June - 06 July 2026

olivier-2018 — Fri, 29 May 2026 06:39:22 GMT

Hi pavankumar843,

In my understanding, only one voucher is available per user account, no matter whether you complete 1 or more learning paths.

Good luck with the learning.

Hi Yuan489,

Unfortunately this means that you won't be eligible for the voucher if complete the other modules on that same earning path.

BUT there is still time until the event, you can continue learning on that path, and then select another learning path and complete it within the event window to get your voucher.

That will increase you knowledge in Databricks so you have nothing to loose if you spare the time.

All the best with the learning.

Hi AnuMathew,

Not at all. You can start learning from June 15th onward to earn your voucher. Make sure you complete all modules of a given learning path before the end date. Many lessons have slides, make sure to go the last slide to complete the lesson. Check that the lesson has been labelled as completed.

All the best with the learning.

Re: Advanced Learning Festival: 15 June - 06 July 2026

fosterzhen — Fri, 29 May 2026 09:22:54 GMT

What if I started a module but have not finished? Should I wait until the event starts to finish it? Or do I need to start another path?

Re: Advanced Learning Festival: 15 June - 06 July 2026

olivier-2018 — Fri, 29 May 2026 09:34:33 GMT

Yes, you should wait to complete the entire module. In case you completed another module within that same learning path, then it makes no difference as you won't be eligible for a voucher from THAT learning path.

You can however start a different learning path in which you have not completed any module.

Re: Advanced Learning Festival: 15 June - 06 July 2026

bonita420 — Sat, 30 May 2026 09:18:11 GMT

If I have watched just one video of the module, am I still eligible to earn the voucher? Is it true that I can get only one voucher per user account per each learning festival event? In next learning festival, I can get another voucher of a different path?
