Adobe broken links - Sorry this page is unavailable

[Winter2023]

I cant find any information on the Adobe certified associate exam as all the links I've been given or have searched for or

advertised on Lynda.com are broken.

Broken link is http://www.adobe.com/education/certification-programs.html is broken.

Please could someone point me in the right direction. I need information on the Adobe certified associate exam so I can access exam objectives, exam preparation  materials and exam study guides.

Hi Barbara,

Earlier, when trying to go to this URL:

http://www.adobe.com/education/certification-programs.html

The Adobe website would forward me to:

http://www.adobe.com/uk/education/certification-programs.html

It inserted "UK" after the domain name - I guess because I was logged into my Adobe account and it knows I'm in the UK?

Logging out of my Adobe account, and I would not get forwarded to the "UK" page and so everything worked! 

However, 10 minutes later,  and I'm getting the 404 Page not found error again  But this time,  I'm even getting the error when trying to go to the first (US based) URL.

I've tried the normal - clearing cache, using Incognito mode,  trying a different browser (IE 11 instead of Chrome) and my partner has just tried again on his PC.   He also VPN'd to work, so his connection to the Internet from his laptop is actually via Paris, but that didn't work either.  Lastly, he tried a command line check on the URL (avoiding Browser cookies etc. etc.) and got this:

Would you mind checking again please?

When I tried the two links (USA and UK) I got the following result (see screen capture below). Although the page displayed a 404 error, all the links on the page worked.

Could be a problem on Adobe's end. This is their support page Contact us | Adobe
