Hi everyone,
I recently completed the Level 1 n8n course , but I haven’t received my skill badge. When I tried the verification link from my completion email, it returned a 404 error , so I wasn’t able to self-verify.
Details:
Unique Course ID: 5294bf859a17c6eb496c88bafd2ad753
Forum Username: garvranaaa
Since the automated verification isn’t working on my end, could a moderator please manually check my ID and assign the badge ? Happy to provide any additional details (screenshot of completion email, timestamp, etc.) if that helps speed things up.
Thanks in advance for the help!
Hi @garvranaaa Welcome!
See this:
If you earned a forum badge, nothing is being taken away from you. Existing badges stay on your profile. We are simply not issuing new ones under the old system.
The text course content is being retired now that its replacement is live. n8n Quickstart in the Academy is based on those original courses, updated and expanded with a new AI section, so the material you valued is still there in a better form.
Going forward, completion badges are issued through Accredible. They are verifiable, anyone can confirm they are real, and you also receive a completion certificate for each course you finish. These are not certifications .
As the n8n Academy comes online , we are retiring the old text-based courses and the forum badges that went with them. This post explains what is changing and what it means if you have earned them.
What is being retired
The original text courses and the forum badges tied to them are being phased out, and will be retired on 30 June 2026. They did their job well and helped a lot of people get started. The Academy replaces them with something more structured: proper courses, hands-on exercises, qui…
However, we have an improved alternative for you:
The n8n Academy is here (soft launch)
The first version of the n8n Academy is now live at learn.n8n.io . It is our new home for structured n8n learning: proper courses with hands-on lessons and a clear path from your first workflow to more advanced builds, all in one place instead of scattered across docs and posts. This is a soft launch, so expect a few rough edges. Your feedback shapes what comes next.
Courses
The academy will be launching with 4 courses available to take.
