That's totally fine, so long as you are accessing the courses via Customer Academy (rather than Partner Academy) you will be eligible ๐Ÿ™‚

If I complete multiple pathways, say Associate ML and Professional ML during the time period, Am I eligible to get 2 different vouchers or just one that can be used for one of the certification exams ? 

How it works ?

Hello Folks,

I had a question about the completion of learning pathways, since I could not find any option to enroll in the pathway I chose (data engineering associate)
Though I have completed all the learning modules of the pathway, so have I qualified for the 50% databricks voucher??. (also is there any way to see that I have?)
Really confused about it please help!!
