Udemy Certification Exam Vouchers 77 pages, 58 current exams

A voucher is a prepaid exam seat. You buy it on Udemy for roughly 10% less than the retail exam fee, receive a voucher code in My learning → Certifications, then enter that code at the payment step when you schedule with Pearson VUE. AWS, Microsoft and CompTIA all use Pearson VUE delivery. Exams can be taken online with a proctor or in person at a test centre.

About 10% on AWS and Microsoft; CompTIA is often 10–12.5% off. Examples: CompTIA Security+ $439 retail vs about $384–$395 on Udemy; A+ $274 per core vs about $240–$247; AWS Cloud Practitioner $100 vs $90; Microsoft AZ-900 $99 vs $89.10; Microsoft AZ-104 $165 vs $148.50. The bigger saving comes from pairing the voucher with a discounted prep course instead of paying full price for training.

Second Chance is the AWS retake product: if you fail, report the result in My learning → Certifications within 9 months, Udemy verifies it, and a new voucher code usually arrives within 7 days. Retake Assurance is used on CompTIA and select Microsoft exams: if you fail, you rebook the same exam with the same voucher code — there is no claim and no new code. Both must be bought with the original voucher, cover exactly one extra attempt, and are not refunded if you pass first time.

No. Udemy coupons and site-wide promo codes never apply to exam voucher purchases — this is stated on every Udemy voucher page. Udemy credits can sometimes be applied, and coupons do apply to the prep courses themselves. The cheapest overall path is a coupon-discounted prep course plus the voucher.

At least 9 months from the date of purchase, including retake coverage. Vouchers, Second Chance and Retake Assurance are non-refundable and non-transferable, valid only in the country of purchase, and an expired voucher's value is forfeited. The exam retirement date can shorten a voucher's useful life even if the printed expiry is later.

Complete beginners: CompTIA Tech+ or A+, AWS Cloud Practitioner CLF-C02, or Microsoft AZ-900 — all foundational with no prerequisites. Aspiring cloud engineers: AWS Solutions Architect Associate SAA-C03 or Microsoft AZ-104. Aspiring security analysts: CompTIA Security+ SY0-701, then CySA+ CS0-004. Each provider page lists exams in recommended order.

Udemy does not handle scheduling — booking, rescheduling, ID checks and technical issues go through Pearson VUE and the certification provider. After purchase, copy your code from My learning → Certifications and paste it in the payment step on the provider's scheduling site: AWS Certification, Microsoft Learn → Credentials, or your CompTIA account. If a code will not apply, verify the exact exam code and country, then contact the provider's support.

Voucher stock is limited and popular exams sell out. Udemy advises checking back regularly — vouchers can also surface inside eligible prep courses under the Overview tab. Use any waiting time to finish the prep course and practice exams so you are ready the moment stock returns.

The count is 15 CompTIA + 12 AWS + 50 Microsoft pages = 77. Current exams are 15 CompTIA + 10 AWS + 33 Microsoft = 58. The gap is Microsoft: 16 of its 50 pages are retired or legacy, and one more (MS-102) retires on November 30, 2026. AWS also has two legacy Specialty listings that remain usable because its vouchers are level-wide.

Fifteen role-based Microsoft exams retired between June and October 2026: AI-900, DP-100, AI-102, AZ-204, AZ-500, AZ-800, AZ-801, PL-200, PL-400, PL-500, PL-600, MB-240, MB-280, MB-335 and MB-700. MS-102 retires on November 30, 2026. The Microsoft page flags all 16 retired or legacy pages and explains which replacement codes have no Udemy voucher yet.
