Vendor Transition

For one month from January 1st, 2025 to the end of January 2025, we will be transitioning to a new certification exam vendor. As a result, your previously scheduled exam has been canceled. This transition, scheduled to take place from January 1st to January 31st, 2025, is part of our ongoing commitment to enhancing your customer experience. The new vendor will offer improved features, better exam support, and a streamlined process to ensure a smoother testing experience for all candidates. We understand this change may cause some inconvenience and sincerely apologize for any disruption it may cause. What You Need to Know & Next Steps:

  • My exam for early 2025 was cancelled, how can I reschedule my exam?

    After the transition is complete, you will be able to reschedule your exam through our certification exam website: https://www.datadoghq.com/certification/overview/. We will send you a follow-up email with detailed instructions, including a certification voucher code that will allow you to reschedule your exam at no cost.

  • How can I register for an account on your new platform?

    Keep an eye on your inbox in the coming weeks for further updates, including the launch of the certification exam registration portal. We will provide guidance on how to access the new system and any other necessary steps to ensure a seamless experience.

  • What can I do during the testing registration blackout?

    We invite you to explore our exam guides, practice exams, and courses on our Learning Center during this period! This is a great time to take advantage of our free learnings to begin your studies!

  • I have questions about the transition, where can I go?
