hi, I can not access the SEO course i have been working on and haven’t been able to access this course since the 25th of June. When I do click on SEO, it takes me to AEO Fundamentals and tries load a SEO certificate for me. Is there a way I can still access the SEO course that i have not finished?

Hi @cally and welcome to the HubSpot Community! 🙌

Thank you so much for reaching out.

The experience you’re having is expected, HubSpot Academy officially retired the SEO Certification on June 23.

In its place, we’ve introduced an exciting new journey: the [AEO certification](https://academy.hubspot.com/courses/aeo-fundamentals-certification-en)! That’s why when you try to access SEO, you’re now redirected to AEO Fundamentals.

If the SEO course wasn’t completed before it was retired, it’s no longer possible to resume or finish it. So we encourage you to check out our new AEO Fundamentals Certification, which launched on June 25. This updated course is designed to keep you at the forefront of evolving best practices in the field.

If you have any questions or need help getting started with the new certifications, please let us know, we’re here to support you!

Have a lovely day!  
Bérangère
