Hi @Jim_Anderson hope you’re doing well.

I wanted to inform you that I’ve completed the Associate Data Engineering learning path on October 24th and have also downloaded my certificates.

As mentioned in the forum, the voucher and discount details are expected to be shared in early November. Could you please let me know which email address I should ensure is unblocked or monitored to receive the related communication?

Hi Jim,

I’m attending the virtual Databricks event, but I’m facing an issue accessing the Apache Spark Developer learning track. When I click on it, it redirects me to this URL:
👉 https://customer-academy.databricks.com/learn/multidomain/selector

After selecting Partner Academy, it takes me to the homepage instead of starting the course:
👉 https://databricks.docebosaas.com/pages/35/partner-academy-home-page

Could you please guide me on how to start the virtual learning modules? I’m a bit late, and since the event ends on October 31st, I’d like to complete it in time.
