The date mentioned for voucher validity is for taking the exam before that time or using the voucher code by that date to schedule the exam ? (Where exam date can be after voucher expiry date) . Please let me know this.

Hello  , Ashwin_DSA, 

I have completed all the modules in the Learning Pathway for Apache Spark Developer. However, my email inbox was full earlier, so I have missed the voucher notification email.
