Subject: SCORM Lessons Cannot Be Marked as Completed – Advanced Learning Festival

Hi,

I’m currently working through one of the learning paths as part of the Databricks Advanced Learning Festival, and I’ve encountered an issue with some of the course content.
Some of the lessons within the selected learning path are SCORM-type materials. I have completed the content and reviewed the entire section, but I cannot find any way to mark these lessons as Completed. After finishing the chapter, it still remains In Progress.
Could you please advise how SCORM-type lessons are supposed to be completed in the Databricks Academy? Is there a specific action required to mark them as completed, or is this a known issue?
This is particularly important for the Advanced Learning Festival, as the requirements state that all components of a learning path need to be marked as completed within the event period in order for the learning path to qualify.

I’ve attached a screenshot showing the issue.
Could you please let me know how I can get these SCORM lessons marked as completed?
Thank you for your help!Képernyőkép 2026-09-16 105850.png

I'm also facing the same issue with SCORM type lessons. May be we have to wait for sometime

Hi, Please refresh the SCORM page once after that it will show complete

Hi,

I faced the same issue as well. I found a solution that worked for me.

After reading the complete article, if there are any questions, make sure you answer them. Then, don’t immediately move to the next lesson.

Instead, you’ll see a cross (X) button beside the “Next Lesson” option. Click on the cross button and wait for a few seconds. The lesson should then automatically be marked as Completed.

Hope this helps!

Once completed, try to refresh the page so that it will update the status. I faced the same issue yesterday. After page refresh, it worked.

Hi @Jim_Anderson,
I want to earn Data Engineer Professional certificate.All the 4 modules fall under this learning path have already been completed by me in the month of April this year as part of asscociate level certification.
Do I need to retake the course? or do I need to complete other non-data engineer course and use the voucher for  Data Engineer Professional certificate?
Please help me understand this.
Thanks,

How can I clear the previous status? Even after clicking 'Retake', the course is still not working.
