Unfortunately the Deploy Workloads with Lakeflow Jobs module is still showing as incomplete

I completed other 2 courses. That can be considered right ignoring the one you mentioned.

@Jim_Anderson .. Any update

1. I have not received the voucher ....already checked my spam folder.
2. I already have a yearly subscription for Customer academy. How does the discount work in that case.

The certification exam seems to be a so called proctored exam, and one needs to use a lockdown browser to attend. How can I check already before scheduling the exam that I am able to install such a browser into my computer?

You can run a system check using the instructions below:

https://www.kryterion.com/systemcheck/

Have checked those instructions already several times and unfortunately with best of my effort cannot find a link where I am supposed to load the lockdown browser. Have never done a proctored exam before, and lockdown browser is completely unknown territory to me. Sorry.

Hi @Jim_Anderson,

Actually, I didnโ€™t want to bother you and waited as long as possible, but I still havenโ€™t received the reward email for completing Learning Pathway 1: Associate Data Engineering, even after checking my inbox and spam. I kindly request you to check this.

Thanks!
