@Jim_Anderson So we don't need to write a comment that we have completed the required number of courses? It's enough just to click "Yes" next to "Will you be attending?", and on May 1st we will receive our discount by email.

Hello, good evening, how are you?

Can we already request the voucher, or only after April 30th?
I have completed the ML Professional learning path.

Hi, I finished the courses using the customer account. When I send in the request for availing voucher code, the support team reverted back saying it's only available to partners. Is this so?
Could I use my personal email to finish the courses if customer accounts are not eligible for voucher codes?

To confirm, there is no requirement to email the support team to avail of the discount. As per the post, the certification vouchers will be distributed to all learning festival participants (including customers and prospects) after the event has concluded in early May. This will be sent automatically to the email address associated with your databricks academy account. There is no action required by participants 🙂

The Apache Spark Programming with Databricks course is not one of the courses included within the Virtual Learning Festival, but you could always complete one of the other eligible learning pathways and look to leverage the voucher to take the Apache Spark Developer Certification 🙂

Hi @Jim_Anderson hope you're doing well. Aaa22a25nwGEHSdw

 

I received the above 50% in the last Databricks Festival which is supposed to expire  on mid-May. Interestingly when I want to use ot to schedule exam recently, I found that it has expired which is strange. Can you help on this please? 

 

Thanks

Hey @Jim_Anderson ,

Will we still get the voucher even if we enrolled for the courses but not completed before the Virtual Learning Festival start date(lets say April 3) ?

Thanks

@Jim_Anderson

 I have selected Databricks "PROFESSIONAL DATA ENGINEERING" Pathway 2, which contains 4 modules as listed. So after completion of these all 4 modules will I need to submit or fill any form to get the 50% voucher for certification? Is that 50% voucher only specific for that particular certification exam or I can redeem any certification exam using that?
Also can I access the completed self paced course videos later even after the festival?

Hello @Jim_Anderson and @all,
Is there way to access the Demo notebooks which are used in Data Engineering Learning Path(ASSOCIATE DATA ENGINEERING & PROFESSIONAL DATA ENGINEERING). I'm looking to practice those alongside.

Thanks in advance..!
