Hi @NSingh21,

Which course are you trying to take? Can you share a screenshot of the error message?

Hi @NSingh21,

Some practical exercises require a certain subscription level. Which subscription level are you on?

If you have finished the course content for free, it was apparently free. I can see how you find it misleading that completing the course requires access to certain products – that’s how HubSpot chooses to communicate about these courses.

Hi katstenkoehler,

I understand that but i cannot

get my certificate as long as i don’t complete my practicals. And for completing the practicals i have to pay. I saw it was a free certification course so opted for it. I was wondering how will i get the certificate for free if i have to subscribe for practical exam.

Regards,

Nishant

Hi @NSingh21,

If the certification requires you to have access to a certain tool, you cannot get the certification. Unfortunately, there isn’t any working around that. Don’t shoot the messenger.
