Add an option for secondary email
There should be an option to add a secondary email to MongoDB account for all platforms. Having an extra email may help a user to choose between emails for different platforms or different needs. As in primary email should be used as a login email and all legal or billing-related communications. A user may choose which email to use as a primary email as GitHub does. A user may choose a secondary email to receive newsletters, product updates, etc. Secondary emails may be used as a communication medium for MongoDB university. The secondary email may be a workplace email where a professional team/organization may invite a user through the secondary email (provided by the user) but the user logs into the system through primary email. This last scenario is helpful for me where I don't need to use two different MongoDB accounts for the workplace and personal usage, but the same account with different emails for different organizations.

piling on this. We just ran a training with my organization, and they want people to use their company account. But I had previously used an old company account, and so any previous progress can be lost because I don't have access to that email. One solution is to use your personal account, but what if you were using some now defunct email service? Does that mean that you can't ever get your certifications again?
