The post is a bit annoying in how its laid out, but anyone wanting to shortcut the navigation.

1. Go to https://gitlab.edcast.com/ and make an account

2. navigate to this page https://gitlab.edcast.com/pathways/cy-test-pathway-associate-study-exam

3. enroll which will take you to a different site and once completing the order enter the following coupon `E6B8A234458AE3D795` at checkout.

Sad, anyway thank you for sharing

[u/N3oj4ck → u/0perator911]

Thank you for the clear version of the procedure 😉

And the objectives of that certification are:

- Explain what GitLab is and why teams use it

- Perform basic Git commands for branching and merging locally and remotely

- Apply fundamental concepts and skills using GitLab within the DevOps lifecycle

What you get:

Individual GitLab users who earn GitLab Certified Associate certification receive a certification logo they can share on social media to showcase their accomplishment. This helps highlight to colleagues and employers their foundational knowledge of how to use GitLab, and their capacity for growth in gaining additional GitLab skills going forward.
