    Hi Bharath B T

    When you complete a Microsoft certification exam through Pearson VUE, the exam result and certificate are not issued instantly in Microsoft Learn. The synchronization between Pearson VUE and Microsoft Learn typically takes up to 48 hours, but in some cases it can take a few business days. Since you mentioned it has been two days, you are right at the threshold where results should start appearing.

    First, log into the Microsoft Learn portal with the same Microsoft account (MSA/Azure AD account) that you used to register for the exam. If you used a different email address at Pearson VUE than the one linked to your Learn profile, the certificate will not show until you merge or update your accounts. You can check this under Microsoft Learn → Profile → Certification → Certification Dashboard.

    If the exam still does not appear, go to the Certification Dashboard directly: https://www.microsoft.com/learning/dashboard.aspx. This dashboard pulls data from Pearson VUE and is the authoritative place to confirm your exam status. If the exam result is visible there but not in Learn, it’s an account linkage issue. If it’s missing entirely, Pearson VUE may not have transmitted the record yet.

    In that case, verify your Pearson VUE profile email matches your Microsoft Certification profile email. If they differ, you need to contact Microsoft Certification Support to merge the records. You can open a support case from the Certification Dashboard under “Help” → “Get support.”

    If everything matches and more than 72 hours have passed, the only resolution is to raise a ticket with Microsoft Certification Support so they can manually reconcile your exam record.

    I hope you've found something useful here. If it helps you get more insight into the issue, it's appreciated to accept the answer. Should you have more questions, feel free to leave a message. Have a nice day!

    Harry.

    If your certification is not showing up in the Microsoft Learn portal after taking the exam through Pearson VUE, there are a few steps you can take:

    1. Check Your Microsoft Learn Profile: Ensure that you are signed in with the correct Microsoft account associated with your certification. Sometimes, users may have multiple accounts and may not be logged into the right one.
    2. Review Credential Requirements: Make sure you have passed the appropriate exams required for the certification you are expecting to see.
    3. Contact Support: If you still do not see your certification, it is recommended to contact Microsoft Credentials Support for further assistance. They can help you verify your account and check for any issues related to your certification visibility.
    4. Wait for Processing: Sometimes, it may take some time for the certification to appear in your profile after passing the exam. It can take up to 72 business hours for the updates to reflect.

    If you need immediate assistance, you can reach out to Pearson VUE Support or Microsoft Credentials Support directly.
