Breaking News
Microsoft Build registration is Open
Microsoft Build registration is now open for both in-person Seattle and online. The conference will be held May 19 – 22, 2025.
I must say that as of this publication, there is no Cloud Skills Challenge for a free exam voucher. I will keep checking to see if this changes. I do want to let you know because these free exam vouchers help you upskill and reskill to your next career level.

2025 Oracle Cloud Data Platform Foundations Associate Training + Exam Are Out
Today Oracle Cloud renames the Data Foundations to Data Platform, reduces the number of questions from 55 to 40 and releases the free training and exam. This question reduction is great because it aligns with the other two free OCI Foundations Associate exams. Now all three OCI Foundations Associate training and exams are updated for 2025.
Oracle Cloud Foundations to Professional Certification Pathways
Oracle Cloud is hosting a couple of free certification promotions. Since this is our 3rd anniversary, I want to make it special and provide you, the reader, with the pathways section.
Data Platforms to APEX Cloud Developer
The 2025 free data certification come out makes it easier to pass the APEX Developer free opportunity. Now if you’re new to Oracle Cloud data services, you can study and pass the Oracle Cloud Data Platform certification first?then study and pass the Oracle APEX Developer certification before the May 15, 2025 promotion ends.
AI Foundations Associate to AI Vector Search Professional
The 2025 AI Foundations Associate training and exam give you basic understanding of Oracle Cloud AI services. They also cover vector databases which you will need in order to pass the AI Vector Search professional certification before the May 15, 2025 promotion ends.
With 2 months to go before these promotions ends, now is a great time to use these two FREE Foundations Associate training and exams to get two Oracle Cloud professional certifications for FREE!
More FREE Oracle Certifications
The Raise Your Game Oracle Cloud Applications Challenge is still ongoing now through May 15, 2025. You must first activate and register for the challenge. There are two levels. To pass level 1 you must complete one of the four Oracle Cloud Fusion training and certifications. To pass level 2 you must complete the assessment course and exam. You must complete both levels before May 15, 2025.
Below are the four Oracle Cloud Fusion exams
These four certifications are in demand. When employers mention Oracle Cloud, many of them are referencing these CX, ERP, HCM and SCM certifications. Use this Raise Your Game Challenge to separate yourself from your competition.
Which Oracle Certification Should I Pursue?
That is a great question. There are a lot of choices right now. I would assess your skills. If you’re more into cloud computing then the Oracle Cloud Foundations Associate would be first. If you’re more into business and industry then take a look at the Oracle Cloud Fusion. You truly can’t go wrong either way. Just take full advantage of these free opportunities before they expire.
