I am trying to get myself enrolled in one of the courses on microsoft learn (Github Copilot), but I do not have a last name in my official document, and unfortunately while registering for exam, the last name option is compulsory.

What should be done in this case?

    According to Microsoft:

    https://learn.microsoft.com/users/me/settings

    ....

    Enter your legal name EXACTLY as it appears on your Government Issued ID. You must take this ID to the certification exam and the proctor will check that they match. If you don't have a legal last name, please enter _ in the last name field.

    .....
