No, we're not becoming EUGs...
Let's get the elephant in the room cleared up first. PUGS are staying PUGS. Now with that out of the way, let's move onto what this post really is for. With the rebrand to Everpure, we have the opportunity to create distinct visual identities for PUG chapters. To ensure this is a truly community-driven process, we are requesting community members (YOU & your peers) create a mood board for your chapter. Here's the steps for doing this: Request Input: Each chapter leader will be creating a post on your chapter's group discussion board requesting mood board inputs. These inputs must be received by April 30th, 2026 to be considered. If your chapter has not provided any inputs by the deadline, you will not receive a custom logo. Research & Discussion within the chapter: Post in the discussion thread any inspiration you think should be included in the mood board. Conversation on the inclusion or exclusion of any elements is encouraged! Group consensus will govern what goes on the moodboards. Mood board creation: I will add all elements agreed on by each chapter to the mood board the first week of May. Approval: Mood boards will be sent back to each chapter for approval. (May 11-15) Design: Moodboard will be submitted to the Brand team for design work. Reveal: New logos will be released this summer! Please review the attached PDF for further details and examples. I hope you all are as excited about this as I am! Let me know if you have any questions. -BriHelp Shape the Future of the Everpure Customer Community! 🧡

Hey gang, If any of you currently hold a Flash Array certification there is an alternative to retaking the test to renew your cert. The Continuing Pure Education (CPE) program takes into account learning activities and community engagement and contribution hours to renew your FA certification. I just successfully renewed my Flash Array Storage Professional cert by tracking my activities. Below are the details I received from Pure. Customers can earn 1 CPE credit per hour of session attendance at Accelerate, for a maximum of 10 CPEs total (i.e., up to 10 hours of sessions). Sessions must be attended live. I would go ahead and add all the sessions you attended at Accelerate to the CPE_Submission form. Associate-level certifications will auto-renew as long as there is at least one active higher-level certification (e.g., Data Storage Associate will auto-renew anytime a Professional-level cert is renewed). All certifications other than the Data Storage Associate should be renewed separately. At this time, the CPE program only applies to FlashArray-based exams. Non- FA exams may be renewed by retaking the respective test every three years. You should be able to get the CPE submission form from your account team. Once complete email your recertification Log to peak-education@purestorage.com for formal processing. -CharlieWelcome Train & ICYMI: Highlights from the week of Dec 12!
