I hope you are doing well.

Please find my course completion certificate attached for your reference.

I would really appreciate your support in providing the voucher at the earliest possible time.

Unfortunately it looks like you only completed the first module (Data Ingestion with Delta Lake) of the Associate Data Engineering learning pathway. Please note, all four modules within the learning pathway needed to be completed to prepare for the certification and qualify for the voucher, as per the event instructions.

Hi @Jim_Anderson . I completed 2 learning pathways DATA ANALYSTS and PROFESSIONAL ML PRACTITIONERS. In my account it says enrolled just because I skipped the introduction video. Is there any chance to still get the voucher ?

Is there any content behind the slides or do you have to book onto a course to be taken through them?

I've attended a couple of courses previously and typically somebody presents and uses the slides for guidance.

Thanks
