Good Evening @Jim_Anderson,

I have completed all the modules for all the 8 learning pathways and recieved the badges in my email. 

When I open my credentials badges, I can only see 22 credentials. There should be more credentials as I just completed the learning pathway 7: Apache Spark Developer. If you could please help me with this, it would be much appreciated. 

If this is not possible, it is okay. I am looking forward to write, the 7 exams this month with the gift voucher.

Thankyou once again for this oppurtunity and Looking forward to your reply. 

Kind Regards,

Praise

Wow Praise! Very impressive work ๐Ÿ™‚ 

Just to clarify, as per the FAQ each participant is limited to one certification voucher per event ๐Ÿ™‚

hi @Jim_Anderson, I completed all the modules in my Gen AI path, and received badges for them, however, when I go back double check the course status in syllabus, some of them are in progress. and I tried but couldn't solve it. 

I'm wondering with that whether or not I'm qualify for the exam voucher, and if not, how could I fix it? thank you Jim.
