What if I can’t find my VMware IT Academy invitation email?

The following steps are a great way to troubleshoot finding your invitation email:

1. Give it a day

First, make sure it has been at least one (1) business day since you purchased your course. If it hasn’t, you might not have received your invitation email yet.

2. Re-check your inbox

Do search for an email from info@itacademy.brightspace.com with the subject line “Welcome: Please redeem your VMWare subscription”. Please make sure you’re using the same email address you enrolled with, and check your spam folders too. A search across “all mail” can help.
