Thanks a lot

Hi @Senapi

As per our other discussion, this will most likely be down to the fact that Free doesnt include the landing page feature. I guess the certification includes links that bypass the normal checks that would prevent you from seeing the landing page dashboard.

Hope this helps.

Hi @ahsantaz,

If you do not have access to the tools required to complete the exercises, you will not be able to complete the certification.

Thank you,

Hi team,

I am facing almost the same issue. I am struck at the practical exercise part - Smart Text where the screen is going blank and I am unable to finish the exercise. Please help.

Hi @madhupriya,

You will need access to all of the tools for the practical exercises in order to complete the certification. The certification is created for those with the subscription level that includes these tools; if you don’t have that subscription level, you will not be able to complete the certification.

Thank you,  
Jenny

Hi @madhupriya ,

In order to complete the Contextual Marketing Certification course and receive the certificate, all users need to have a Marketing Professional or Enterprise subscription. With these subscriptions, users get access to the Pages tool which is required to complete the Smart Text practical exercise. This is mentioned in the course description.

You can get a Marketing Professional trial in order to test out the tools and complete the Smart Text practical exercise, if you wish.

Hope this helps clarify things!

All the best,

Rachel

Hi 🙂  
Thanks for the help but ive already figured the solution.. ill just put the solution out here so that anyone else facing a similar issue can deal with it…  
For the smart text excercise.. one must make sure that they arent using a starter template as that has very few options enabled..  
After selecting either landing page or blog, after scrolling down, you’ll see regular templates which dont have starter written on their top left corner.. in those templates, the option for smart text/make module smart is available…
