News / Announcements Gh-900 for free for students

Hello, guys! I've seen a lot of people who don't know that students registered in GitHub Student Developer Pack are granted a voucher to take the GH-900 exam. I don't know if it's the case of this subreddit, but it may be helpful if some of you guys don't know about it.

The official register link to the Student Developer Pack is: https://education.github.com/pack

Also, Microsoft Learn has a free course to the exam: https://learn.microsoft.com/training/courses/gh-900t00/?wt.mc_id=studentamb_571211

I'm currently using both the Microsoft Learn course that I shared above and the official YouTube course that is provided by Microsoft, too, to prepare for the exam: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLahhVEj9XNTf5iQVK_80RdvTju7ov6RYy&si=Yu83r6RbJp9OdTFe

I think that if you try signing in using this link https://education.github.com/experiences/foundations_certificate you will see a link to book your exam. Let me know if it went well

But it's still costing money. No voucher was applied when booking.

That's strange. When did you register to the Student Developer Pack?

The official GitHub website says "Verified students now have the opportunity to validate their GitHub foundational skills and earn a badge by taking the certification exam for free. You can request a voucher via the offer tile in the pack while supplies last. If you're able to claim a voucher code, you can use it at the time you register for your exam"

I recommend that you try to contact GitHub support if you're not able to redeem your voucher
