how do you track completion of course module
You can verify whether all requisite modules have been completed inside the 'My Transcript' option on the user menu in the top left.
I could not see a "My Transcript" option - maybe that got renamed?
But,
User menu (the hamburger menu top left)
-> My activities
-> Courses
Lists all your courses, the user status (you want "COMPLETED"), and the COURSE COMPLETION date (you want 9 Jan 2026 - 30 Jan 2026).
Caveat Emptor.
Hi, I'm also following the course, you can see the progress on the "Learning Plan". Per course you have several ''Lessons". Once you have gone through each Lessons that completes a Course and they complete a Learning Plan. Hope this helps.
Hi Jim,
I completed Learning Pathway 2: Professional Data Engineering last week.
Could you please let me know how we can confirm if we're being considered for the 50% voucher?
Thanks
You can verify whether all requisite modules have been completed inside the 'My Transcript' option on the user menu in the top left. Assuming you've completed all of the modules of a learning pathway, you'll be included within the voucher distribution on February 06.
My transcript option not showing for me. Can you please assist on this.
sorry, which user menu? I do not see a "My Transcript" Option anywhere
Hi @Jim_Anderson, Suppose I get the voucher, Do I have to take the exam before a certain date? If so can u please tell me when?
Hi there, I think they said the voucher will expire if you receive it on May 2nd (deadline). Please feel free to correct me if I’m wrong.
how can we access the modules files of associate data engineering
From here: https://customer-academy.databricks.com/pages/29/customer-academy-home-page
Next, hit course catalog,then scroll down to the following subcategory to find it among a series of courses:
DB001 [FREE Self-Paced] Databricks Academy - Role-Based/Specialty Learning Path Catalog
i cannot find that
It appears there's no separate path for Associate Data Engineering -Here's the link for a complete Data Engineering that combines the Associate DE & Professional DE: https://customer-academy.databricks.com/learn/learning-plans/10/data-engineer-learning-plan
However, if you choose to stick with Associate DE, then follow through with the prescribed courses by Databricks as follows:
Data Ingestion with Lakeflow Connect
Deploy Workloads with Lakeflow Jobs
Build Data Pipelines with Lakeflow Declarative Pipelines
DevOps Essentials for Data Engineering
Do we need to wait till the event completed to get the incentives emailed? or will be shared as soon as the learning path is completed, Incentives will be shared by DB team ?
I am pretty sure they said it will be made available on Feb 6th, but feel free to correct me
how to access the labs to perform the labs exercise
Hi. I have completed all the learning paths before the event started. In the course module, it shows that I have already completed them. I also read in the comments that eligibility for the voucher is if the modules are completed during the event window. Is there any solution for my situation? If I retake the course during the event period, will I be eligible for the voucher?
I also completed the entire learning path before the event, totaling 27 completed courses.
Is there any way for me to obtain the voucher?
