I have completed the Associate Data Engineering course in the Databricks Learning Festival 2026, which included the following four modules:

  • Data Ingestion with Lakeflow Connect
  • Deploy Workloads with Lakeflow Jobs
  • Build Data Pipelines with Lakeflow Spark Declarative Pipelines
  • DevOps Essentials for Data Engineering

Is completing these four modules sufficient to become eligible for a free certification voucher, or are there any additional requirements?

Hi @VALF,@Jim_Anderson
I have successfully completed all four modules of the Associate Data Engineering program.
It was a great learning experience and helped me cover several concepts that I had missed in my previous learning journey.

Thank you for conducting such a helpful and informative program. I truly appreciate the effort put into organizing it.
I look forward to receiving the voucher.

Hello @VALF ,

I have registered for the Advanced Learning Festival (15 June 2026 – 06 July 2026) and would like some clarification regarding course completion tracking for the 50% certification voucher eligibility.

I had previously completed the course "Data Ingestion with Lakeflow Connect" on 04-Jan-2026. As part of the current Learning Festival, I started retaking the course. However, after reopening and completing the course, the completion page still shows the original completion date (04-Jan-2026) instead of a new completion date within the festival period.

Could you please confirm:

  1. Do previously completed courses count toward the current Learning Festival requirements?
  2. If courses must be completed during the festival period, will retaking the course update my eligibility even though the original completion date is still displayed?
  3. Is there any additional action required from my side to ensure my progress is counted for the 50% certification voucher?

Thank you for your assistance.

1. So long as you complete at least one of the modules from a learning pathway within the window, its fine if other elements were previously completed before the event.

2. Course completions will only ever be logged against the initial date the content is completed - revisiting content does not constitute participation in the current event.

3. No further action required - all eligible participants will receive the incentives via email on July 10
