You can find an update on free certifications in this blog
The Certification team is excited to announce that it will be offering free Alteryx Designer Expert and Alteryx Predictive Master Certification onsite at INSPIRE EMEA on Monday, October 17 and Tuesday, October 18. In addition to being able to take the test for free, candidates will enjoy the fact that the exam will be proctored onsite rather than via the typical online proctoring process.
More information and registration details for these certifications coming soon! In the meantime, if you still need to register for Inspire EMEA click here!
@Carlithian You no longer need the training pass to register for an exam at EMEA! We've decided to open the exam registration up to all attendees.
I completely echo @cgoodman3 ’s view.
Had i known that there is no agenda item available for a general pass on the first 2 days, i would have reconsidered attending Inspire EMEA 2022!
From the discussions in this thread, clearly not making the “free” expert exams free is a departure from precedent INSPIRE.
Considering this is the first Inspire EMEA in 3 years, i am sure a lot of people were looking forward to re-experience the magic of INSPIRE 2019. Alas, this is not the case…
Hence the disappointment and surprise felt so many on this thread. I wonder i am the only one feeling this way…
Since we are still 3 weeks away, can Alteryx team please reconsider the User feedback?

@MPohlers Thank you for your feedback! A training pass purchase is no longer a requirement to register for the exam. Exam registration is now open to all attendees. We hope to see you in the exam room!
@Jean-Balteryx Hi, we've read the comments and paid attention to the feedback! Training pass purchases are no longer required to register to take an exam.
That’s great news. But can you help check the portal? It still does not allow registration for exam without a training pass.
Thank you!
@DawnDuong Thank you for letting me know! I am looking into it right now and will let you know once the portal is updated.
@DawnDuong We are updating the site now and anyone who wants to register to take an exam at Inspire EMEA should be able to do that by the end of the day today. Thanks for the feedback and for your patience!
I know there will be many happy users now. Really looking forward to seeing more people join the club.
