Hi,
may be this question was already asked, but I would like to clarify - do I need to enroll somehow especially  ("Please follow the enrolment links included within the Learning Event."), or it is simply enough to complete in specified time period all modules included in a PATHWAY ?
Thanks!

You simply need to complete one or more of the specified learning pathways during the event window - the links within the original post have just been provided for reference ๐Ÿ™‚

In the previous Databricks Virtual Learning Festival held in January, I completed the program and received a 50% discount code using this email address.
Could you please confirm whether I can use the same email for the current Databricks Virtual Learning Festival, or if I need to register with a different one?

You are welcome to use the same email, but please note you'll need to complete an alternative learning pathway during this event in order to qualify for the incentives again ๐Ÿ™‚
