Future Plans for Splunk eLearning?

With the removal of the Fundamentals 1 and 2  courses. I am looking to see if Splunk plans to have a more clearly defined path for say Courses and possible lab environments needed for someone to be comfortable with the Splunk Core and Power User Certification tests? Currently I see individual topics which now have an much more expensive cost to complete before someone can state alright I have done these things and I should feel comfortable to take the test. 

The single topic eLearning does not provide a clear path for someone new to view these and decide which to take. Will there be new labs added for these courses to prepare someone to take the certifications?

I have watched some of these free videos but that is insufficient to be comfortable with a test.  Will there be Core user and Power User course packs with labs coming?

Great question! The Core Power User track flowchart shows the details for recommended coursework.

Transitioning to Single-Subject Courses Mapping provides some information on the mapping from fundamentals 1 and 2 to the new courses.

When I go to this page on splunk.com it does appear to show me a list of recommended single subject training courses for a certification, as per the other comment perhaps send feedback if that doesn't work?
