Hi @Jim_Anderson,

I participated in the Databricks Festival and successfully completed the Data Analyst. However, I havenโ€™t received the certification voucher yet. Could you please check on this? I have posted one comment before regarding this issue, but u just kudos it and no reply for it yet on Mar.

My registered email is: minon101@gmail.com

Thank you for your help.
Best regards,

Unfortunately the AIBI for Data Analysts module is still listed as In-progress, rather than complete

Hi  @Jim_Anderson 

I would like to use the promotion code that was sent to me via email after completing courses in the Databricks Virtual Learning Festival. However, when I try to use it, it shows as an โ€œInactive Promotion Code.โ€ As a result, Iโ€™m unable to book my exam. The stated deadline was 2 May 2026, and I did attempt to book the exam before this date, but I encountered the same issue. Could you please assist by reactivating the code or providing a new one? Thank you for your help.

Hello @Jim_Anderson,

I received a promotion code via email after completing courses in the Databricks Virtual Learning Festival. However, when I attempt to use the code, it appears as โ€œInactive Promotion Code,โ€ preventing me from booking my exam.

The communicated deadline was 2 May 2026, and I did try to schedule the exam before this date but encountered the same issue.

Could you please look into this and either reactivate the code or provide a replacement so I can proceed with booking?

Thank you for your assistance.

Best regards,
Pranav Kumar
