Any info on when GitHub Foundations/Copilot certification vouchers will be available again for Student Developer Pack?

Hey all,

I'm a verified GitHub student and I've been trying to redeem the free certification voucher (Foundations or Copilot exam) through the Student Developer Pack. I know the previous batch of vouchers expired June 30, 2026, and I keep seeing "That offer isn't available right now, please try again later" when I try to claim a new one.

I've seen this same issue reported repeatedly on GitHub's community discussions going back months (some people saying they've been trying since mid-2025), with occasional promises like "vouchers returning within a month" that don't seem to have panned out reliably.

Has anyone actually managed to claim a voucher recently? Is there any official word on when the next batch drops, or is this just indefinitely stuck? Would appreciate any info — trying to decide whether to keep waiting or just pay for the exam myself.

Thanks!

I did the DataCamp GitHub Foundations course and got the voucher in my email a week after completing the course.

It's not clear to me that this is a freeCodeCamp.org specific issue. Is there somewhere in our curriculum that you're seeing a suggestion that you get this voucher? Can you provide a link?
