Permission Inquiry for Databricks Course Content

[Simranpreet]

We are an education-based company currently developing a course on Databricks, which we plan to publish on platforms such as YouTube and Udemy for educational purposes.

We would like to confirm whether any formal permission is required from Databricks if all course materials, including content and examples, are entirely created by our team.

We appreciate your guidance on this matter and look forward to your response

@Simranpreet First of all great job on creating such content. Second, I don't think a formal permission is needed for such unless you use some proprietary contents.

@MandyR might help here. Thanks.

@Sumit_7 thank you for bringing this to my attention! @Simranpreet I will check with the appropriate channels internally and let you know.

Hi @Simranpreet Any effort like this would need to align with our policies:

Hi @Simranpreet No formal permission is required to create and sell/publish an independent educational course about Databricks, but there are specific rules you must follow regarding trademarks, logos, and official Databricks course materials.

here's couple links I found which can be helpful:

• Databricks Training Terms: Training Terms and Condition | Databricks
• Databricks Brand Guidelines: Databricks Brand Guidelines | Brand overview
• Databricks Partner Program Terms (for trademark usage rules): databricks-partner-program-terms-and-conditions.pdf

Thank you @abhi_dabhi.
Could you please confirm if any discounts are available for groups of students planning to pursue Databricks certification?

@Simranpreet Coupons and Voucher (50% off) are distributed to eligible users during Global Learning Festival. Next will be in July and then in October.
