I have done EVERY course in Veeam university and can’t seem to get the pro badge if anyone wants to take a look (No rush)

I even did a revisit, found a few more and finished them, Still nothing :)

Hi @Stabz! We add those manually, so you should let us know if you earned your VMCA/VMCE and we can award the badge. @nicolas.nucciarelli you should have your VMCE badge now :)
