Hello everyone, first of all, I would like to thank the Databricks team.

For all participants who, like me, were confused about the voucher, a colleague above shared the name of the email that helped me find it.

Check your email:

"Thank you for participating in the Databricks Virtual Learning Festival!"

 

Email sent by:

Databricks User Enablement (via Airtable) <noreply+automations@airtableemail.com>

 

I would like to thank the entire team once again and wish everyone involved success.

Congratulations, I believe you are one of the selected ones. I finished the course, but it seems I was not lucky enough to be given a discount. Anyway, I will wait until I can afford to write the exam with my own cash. All the same, it was a good one, I learnt a lot of new things and changes in the Data Engineering Associate.
