I’m excited to announce a new Developer Associate certification for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure that’s available immediately. This developer-centric certification is meant for all application developers who are interested in learning more about using Oracle Cloud to build modern enterprise applications. With this addition, we now offer five distinct certifications for architects, operators, and developers on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
The Developer Associate certification is intended for developers who have six months of experience in developing and maintaining applications. Developers need to have a solid understanding of cloud native fundamentals and in-depth knowledge of at least one programming language. They should demonstrate knowledge of developing, securing, testing, and operating applications in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, and the ability to use the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure service APIs, CLI, and SDKs to write applications. Practical knowledge of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure architecture, use cases, and best practices is recommended.
The certification exam is 105 minutes long, contains 60 questions, and is currently available in English only.
We’ve teamed up with Oracle University on two fronts: reducing the pricing for the certification exams and providing training content free of charge to help you learn Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and get certified! You can trust our free content—engineering product managers and subject-matter experts have created and fine-tuned this content and already presented it to hundreds of customers worldwide! Today, we’re making it all free and easily accessible for learners anywhere.
Along with proving you free training content, effective immediately, we’re reducing the prices for some of our certification exams.
All Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Associate level certification prices are now US$150 and Foundation-level certification is US$95.

"Practice Exam" does NOT work!
I tried to register for the exam again since you mentioned in your blog that it is till 15th May but I was surprised that I am being asked to pay $150. What are you not telling us? Are you sure this exam is free from the start?
Is that why you fail me so that I can pay?
Please do something
Here's how to get the exam for free.

I have the same issue as Racheal, but for the foundations associate. I am sure that I passed it but results said I fail, 64% from 68% that I needed to pass. I tried to rescheduled as I'm still on time but now it is not free, I need to pay.
Are we only allowed to take it one time?

2. 1Z0-1085-F

I am trying to book the exam from last 3 days but at the checkout page it always shows the date has been expired.
I was able to take the free training and passed following two exams

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Architect Associate
I am ready to take the following exam but unable to schedule on pearsonview web site
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Developer 2020 Associate (1Z0-1084-20-F)
Thanks

First of all thanks to Oracle to provide us such a wonderful opportunity to obtain OCI training and certifications during this lockdown to enhance our skill set and be a part of Oracle Cloud family.
With reference to your post on https://blogs.oracle.com/cloud-infrastructure/oracle-cloud-free-certifications-faq/comment-submitted?cid=ff7bfa2a-3871-4d54-ba2b-bc16086a03ef. I have enrolled for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Foundation Associate and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Architect Associate. I have already cleared Cloud Infrastructure Foundation Associate Certification.
Whenever I tried to schedule examination (15 to 20 Times) for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Architect Associate on PearsonVUE website I can be able to select available exam date and time and reach up to "Submit Order Page" when I click on "Submit Order" it shows message "The Appointment is no Longer Available Please Choose Different Date or Time".
I have also tried to communicate on contact number given on https://home.pearsonvue.com/oracle/contact which is out of service, and also try to chat with PearsonVUE team for three times and waited for around 3-4 Hours but not received any reply every two minutes shows message "Thank you for contacting Pearson VUE Live Chat. An agent will be with you shortly" and after an hour chat session automatically terminated.
I have cleared browser cache, changed browsers, changed devices and internet connection to schedule exam but every time received the same message. You are requested to kindly do the needful at the earliest to resolve the issue.
Thank You,
Best Regards,
Hardik Patel

https://www.oracle.com/corporate/blog/free-certifications-oracle-oci-autonomous-033020.html?source=:so:tw:or:awr:ocorp:&SC=:so:tw:or:awr:ocorp:&pcode=
Now I have completed the course for Autonomous database and trying to book the exam, but till yesterday, I cannot find any dates available, or when I find a date/time, at the last moment, it says the date/time is not available.
Now from today, the free code/link for exam booking is not working. No way to reach Pearson support, chat/phones not responding.
How can I book my exam?
Also, there are no dates available within 15-May.
Can someone please take a look ?
today i could see, there are no free certifications available on pearsonvue.
Can anyone confirm, if Oracle removed free OCI certification before 15 May
Are these exams are free? i am trying for 1z0-1072. but it does not have the -F prefix.
also there are no time slots available till 15th May
OCI free training & Certification exam is now seeing as Chargable. However, it was supposed to be free till 15th May 2020 as per the below blog/post from Raghu Viswanathan-
https://www.oracle.com/corporate/blog/free-certifications-oracle-oci-autonomous-033020.html
Could you please look into the same and make it free until 15th May or extend the date for free exam few more days so that we can complete the free examination.
There are many of us who have already prepared for the exam but not able to book the free exams.
Kindly help us.
I tried to book an exam but at. the and of the page didn't give discount. The free cert promotion goes until may 15, right?
Thanks,
It is mentioned ==> There is no limit to the number of different exams that you can take as part of this offer. Note that you have to schedule and take your exams by May 15, 2020.
But, I am unable to schedule for any exam since 3-4 days !!
Has this scheme been withdrawn before the said time ?
Please take a look & advise
Kindly request to help.
I have completed the training of OCI Foundations Associate and when i tried to Enroll for certification exam (1Z0-1085-20 ) before 15th may it was asking for payment of fee at checkout screen.
Please let me know is there any coupon or something?
Thanks
I tried to register exam 997 and 1072 under free certification exam but unable to register exam. No slot available and removed free exams. Kindly do needful. Thanks in advance.
I passed my OCA foundations last week. I used the learning subscription website before but found it didn't contain all the topics for certification. In my research, I found the below website has very good content and also has various levels and depth. Go through all level 50 videos for foundation exam and I assure you will pass the exam without any difficulty. go over the video of level 100 also if you like to get more info. I find 50 and level 100 videos have a lot of overlap. Videos explained by Rohit Rai are excellent, you will remember the content by heart.
Oracle Team - Thank you again for this opportunity to learn. A small suggestion - You guys have to bring level 100, 200, and 300 videos also up to par with level 50.
Thanks!
Parag

Joke Oracle had a spin.. saying "Nothing in the world comes for free"
They may have had 2-3 free per day for the whole day. Also no rainchecks for not able to Schedule before 15th but can take any open slot post 15.
This is why its a silly joke.
I was able to pass the foundations associate certification one month ago, and now I prepared the architect associate certification and I am almost ready to take the exam, but I see the Pearson Vue link just goes to a form to express the interest.
I hope we still can take the exam for free till the deadline of May 15th is not reached yet.
The link is defaulting to registration link.
In their site, these exams codes with "-F" (Free) is not appearing any more.
https://learn.oracle.com/ols/register-cert?exam=1Z0-1072
May be the "free" has a limit!
Please I decided to take the exam of "Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Foundation Associate", and as I know that Oracle announced before that this exam is one of some exams that will be free fees until 15th May 2020, but during revering an appointment through oracle web site " PearsonVue" I found that it requires fees 95
Same as others, I was trying to plan on pearson vue my exam but no available date before ... July...
What a waste of learning time :(
At the moment, I saw available schedules of the same exam from June 15 onwards, will the free voucher still be applied if I reschedule my exam to one of the said new dates?

Dainiel

Thank you for this amazing initiative. Will the learning contents remain free after this 15th May?

Thanks to Oracle for providing great opportunity on training and certification.
As per https://www.oracle.com/corporate/blog/free-certifications-oracle-oci-autonomous-033020.html Certification is free till 15-May-20 but can we access training material free forever, or they are also available till 15-May-20 only? Please clarify.
I cleared Oracle Autonomous Database Specialist and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Architect Associate but failed Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Architect Professional for just 4 marks!, so I need access to those training material to refer again before my second attempt.
Thanks
Chirag
The registrations were supposed to be open until May15, 2020 as per the announcement. This doesnt mean we need to take the exam before May 15,2020. We can register any date after May 15 as well for free.
Unfortunately, that is not the case. Please kindly assist
I have tried all, first there are no dates till July
+ no certification is free any more.
