    Update the legal last name on the Microsoft Learn profile, and if an exam is scheduled, contact Credentials support so the name on the certification profile can be corrected.

    1. Go to the Microsoft Learn profile Settings page: https://learn.microsoft.com/users/me/settings.
    2. In the Legal name section, correct the last name so it no longer duplicates the first name, then save the changes.
    3. If an exam is already booked, a message and link to contact Credentials support will be shown. Use that link (or go to the Credentials support help page) and submit a support request asking them to correct the legal last name on the certification profile.
    4. Provide any requested identification so support can verify and update the legal name.
