DataStax Academy FAQ
DataStax Academy migrated to a new learning management system (LMS) in July 2020. We are also moving to a new Cassandra Certification process so there are changes to exam bookings, voucher system and issuing of certificates.
Check out the Academy FAQ pages for answers to your questions:
- Haven't heard back about exams or vouchers? [NEW August 7]
- When can I book an exam? [NEW August 10]
- How do I qualify for an exam voucher? [NEW August 10]
- How long are the coupons valid for? [NEW August 10]
- Why can't I see my old exam result or certificate? [UPDATED August 10]
- What happened to my previous exam voucher? [UPDATED August 10]
- Why is my previous course progress not shown on the new Academy?
Why did I lose the progress on my courses at the new Academy site?
I have previously addressed this question in an FAQ -- Why does my previous course progress not show at the new Academy site?
The new LMS is a completely new platform with nothing in common with the old system it replaced. Due to this limitation, only the progress of fully completed courses (100% complete) were migrated to the new Academy site.
The progress of partially completed courses in the old site -- even for courses which are 99% complete -- will not be reflected on the new site.
I've checked in the old site and see that you've completed multiple courses with DS210 partially completed:
I've confirmed that this matches what is shown for your profile in the new Academy site -- DS101, DS201 and DS220 are marked as 100% complete.
Please note that your course completion progress is not a pre-requisite to sitting the certification exam. This does not in any way disqualify you from booking an exam.
Thanks for staying with us through the transition. Cheers!
