We're excited to announce that starting July 1, 2025, all GitHub Certification exams will be delivered exclusively through Pearson VUE, in partnership with Microsoft Learn.

This transition marks a significant step in our mission to provide learners and professionals with a more streamlined, accessible, and consistent certification experience. Whether you're earning your first GitHub Certification or renewing your credentials, this change will help simplify how you register, schedule, and take your exams.

While we are thrilled to see brilliant young coders get excited by learning to program, we must comply with United States law. GitHub does not target our Service to children under 13, and we do not permit any Users under 13 on our Service. If we learn of any User under the age of 13, we will terminate that User’s Account immediately. If you are a resident of a country outside the United States, your country’s minimum age may be older; in such a case, you are responsible for complying with your country’s laws.

Seems like there is an issue with taking the registered exam with PSI, even though it is before the date:

An unexpected error occured on the server.

For those of us trying to take advantage of the voucher we received and registered on time, how can we take the GHF test given the move?

Hi JG,

Thank you for reaching out and sharing the error details.

We apologize for the inconvenience you're facing while attempting to access your registered exam via PSI. The error code you mentioned (0HNDKMAC2JR82:0000005B) appears to be a server-side issue on PSI's end.

To proceed, please try the following steps:

1. Clear your browser cache and cookies or try using a different browser.
2. If the issue persists, please contact PSI support directly at [PSI support email or link], referencing the error code above.

In the meantime, we are also escalating this internally to ensure affected users like you can still take the GHF test using your valid voucher.

We’ll keep you updated with any developments. Thanks for your patience!

Best regards,
Sanjid Talukder
