Databricks Certified Data Engineer Associate vs Training Offering

luisgsoliveira — Tue, 11 Feb 2025 12:46:45 GMT

Hello everyone,

I was thinking of taking the exam of the "Databricks Certified Data Engineer Associate" Certification but I am totally confuse.

I read the official exam guide here:

https://www.databricks.com/sites/default/files/2024-06/databricks-certified-data-engineer-associate-exam-guide.pdf

But I already did the first 4 modules of the Data Engineering Learning Path and some concepts seems to be on the path but not in the guide and also vice-versa.

The top issues of the Data Engineering Learning Path are as follow https://www.databricks.com/training/catalog?roles=data-engineer&costs=free&languages=EN&levels=associate

Am I missing anything?
Why the topics don't seem to be sync?

Regards and Thank you

Hello luisgsoliveira,

You are viewing the free courses available on the Academy portal,

1. Build Data Pipelines with Delta Live Tables

2. Data Ingestion with Delta Lake.

3. Data Management and Governance with Unity Catalog

4. Deploy Workloads with Databricks Workflows.

Apart from the free courses, there are 2 paid courses available :

1- Data Engineering with Databricks.

2- Introduction to Python for Data Sciences and Data Engineering.

You can access the links to the paid courses by turning on the filter for "Paid" along with "Free" under the header "By Cost".

The Databricks Certification team always epitomises the review of the Exam Guide to prepare for the exam topics, and you are on the right path.

Once you access the outlines for the paid courses, the remaining topics as mentioned in the exam guide would be addressed, however please do understand that the Certification curriculum is also draws from inferences from the Databricks Data Engineering pillar which at times may or may not be a part of the training curriculum.

Regards,

Krishna
