User Adoption Specialist Certification

Hello,

 

Does Microsoft or EdX.org not offer the User Adoption Specialist Certificate? I went to the EdX.org website and they said it was on hold. Does anyone know where I can earn this certificate?

 

Thank you.

  • Hello all.. glad you found the right links to the Microsoft Learn course. The certificate unfortunately was a component of EdX so is no longer available. We are working on some other plans for the course and its associated badging for the future so I'll keep you updated as I have information to share. Thanks for your continued support of the course!

        I've raised this question in the M365 Champions monthly call, this is their response -

        "we're still working on the migration. we've run into a platform issue that's out of our team's control, unfortunately, and are working closely with the partner engineering team to resolve"

        Hope this helps, but looks like we're holding tight a lil while longer 🙂

      Glad I found this. I also just took the course through Microsoft Learn, and in the article it mentions to obtain the certificate, you have to also complete the course with edX. I signed up with edX, then took the course there as well, then I found out the program was moved to MS Learn, and they don't offer the certificate from there anymore.

      I noticed in Karuana's latest article, she mentions a badge will be rewarded if the email for both MS Learn and the edX are the same. In my case they are, however I signed up for edX after completing the course on MS Learn, so not sure if that will be a concern.

      I'm not sure where to obtain the badge that Karuana mentioned. Do any of you?

      Thanks,

      David

        Hey David,

        I just completed the course through MS Learn & was able to find the badges for the courses & the trophy under my 'Profile' & then 'Achievements'. There you will be able to find all the badges or trophies you have earned from the MS courses. They'll show in order of badges first then trophies. 🙂

       Thanks Graham_McHugh 

       

      I finished the course last night, but there is no place to obtain the certificate.. I looked into Ed.Org but it looks like they archived the course unfortunately.
