Can I use my pay as you go subscription for Databricks Academy Labs?

[MohammedArif]

Can I use my pay-as-you-go or "Visual studio - MPN" subscription for doing hands-on lab activities for the training on "Generative AI Engineering with Databricks" learning path?

Is it required to purchase the academy lab subscription?

The issue i run into using my own Environment is that the notebooks do refer to stuff that is not provided.
Lab2.1 as example uses:

%run ../Includes/Classroom-Setup-02

print(f"Username:          {DA.username}")
print(f"Catalog Name:      {DA.catalog_name}")
print(f"Schema Name:       {DA.schema_name}")
print(f"Working Directory: {DA.paths.working_dir}")
print(f"Dataset Location:  {DA.paths.datasets}")

that is not defined, but also the datasets itself are not in the corresponding ZIP file. Its quite annoying to set it up by reverse engineering..

Just put that stuff to Git like everybody else would... ty!
