Thanks so much for posting in our Community @Sitevity. Because of an influx of users creating low quality, nonsensical or spam posts in the Community with the aim of earning certain Achievements, we’ve made the difficult decision to disable the ability to earn Achievements in our Community.

Note that this change does not affect your ability to earn badges in other projects and communities across GitHub. This change only applies to GitHub’s Community Discussions.

You can learn more about this decision in our announcement post here Achievements will no longer be available in the Community.

Let us know if you have any other questions 🚀

I was also given a discount but I was unable to do the exam because my examiner had to cancel it due to the fact that I wasn't able to provide a means of identification

Hi @queenofcorgis ,

I just found out about this discussion and maybe it's a bit late, what are the requirements to get a voucher for GitHub certifications? Is it a time-limited thing or is it an initiative that will continue in the long term?

Thank you in advance.

@davevad93 @dennysis thanks for your interest. This was a program we ran back in April for a select group of community members that were nominated. Unfortunately, we are not distributing any more vouchers at this moment, but we've noted your interest!
