Transfer Microsoft Learn progress to new Personal Email?

I have been looking to change the email address associated with this account to a different address since I no longer use the email associated with this account.

I initially tried to do this through the profile editing feature on Microsoft Learn, but was told that I could "only have one Personal Email" connected at once. I am unable to remove the other associated email and as such have had no luck moving this over to my new email address.

I tried to find a support number or chat and ended up in a support chat where I was advised to ask here? Or more specifically sent this post which I assume was just to show me to ask here as all the chat links seem personal to the original poster.

Can someone help me out with this?

Dear Emilia,

Thank you for contacting the Microsoft Community.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you might have experienced during the merging process. And I wanted to take a moment to acknowledge your spirit of self-learning which is always the cornerstone of being a great scholar. Your ability to identify the root of the problem and work through it is truly inspiring, and your perseverance revealed in the troubleshooting process is greatly appreciated.

Your dedication to exploring different solutions is truly admirable, and I appreciate your perseverance in trying to resolve the issue independently.

The transfer of certificates and badges requires the conflation of your two accounts. Please kindly follow instructions below to probe for more information about how to merge two accounts:

 

If your profiles are both personal, to transfer your certificate you must have a third Learn Profile under a school/work account and follow the steps below:

 

The school/work Learn Profile works as a 'bridge' that allows you to transfer certification/training progress from a personal account Learn Profile to another personal profile.

 

In case you are not part of an organization that can assign you a work or school account, we advise visiting the article: Signing up for Power BI with a new Microsoft 365 Trial - Power BI.

 

  1. Log into your school/work account (profile A) and add the profile that has your certificate (Profile B). This transfers your certificate from B to A. Please wait for the successful merge message.

  2. In a private tab, log into your work account and remove the old personal account (Settings > Account Management > Linked accounts > remove). (Remember that when your remove your profile, it will be automatically erased)

  3. Log into your main preferred Learn Profile and add your school/work Learn Profile (from Step 1). This transfers your certificate from the work Learn Profile to your preferred personal Learn Profile

 

Ps: The System forbids the action of merging Personal Profile and Personal Profile pointedly. But you can try to transfer your data to the other Personal Learn Profile by transferring it to your Work Profile first.

 

Note: With the changes implemented in our site on July 8th (links below), our internal security policies were updated, and our Support Team is no longer able to confirm any personal information to our customers from their Learn Profiles. This means that previous services related to Certification Profiles (merging, migrations, legal name change, etc.) are now self-assisted by users.

 

Learn more about this policy here: Manage your Microsoft Learn profile settings | Microsoft Learn.

 

We have started a Private Message where we will request details regarding your account to complete an evaluation process. To protect your data, send the information over the Private Message and once we have received your comments, we will validate the profile and get back to you with updates.

 

I look forward to your response. 

Best Wishes
