Find out what it takes to become a Google Certified Educator.
In this video, I will walk you through the process, the exam, the content covered, share free resources, and tips to help you pass!
Teachers ask me all the time about getting Google certified, and more specifically about the Google Certified Educator program and exams, “What’s on the exam? Do you have any tips?”
In the video below, I will share with you the process, the content you need to learn, and some free resources to help you reach your goal of becoming a Google Certified Educator.
The Google Certified Educator program was designed for the classroom teacher but is open for any educator to pursue.

The program is offered at two levels: the fundamentals level (Level 1), and the advanced level (Level 2). Differentiating the certification into two levels gives more teachers an opportunity to get recognized for the work they’ve done. (Learn more: shakeup.link/trainingcenter)
Level 1: The Level 1 Google Certified Educator status indicates that an educator can “successfully implement Google Apps for Education into their teaching practice to enhance teaching and learning.” This certification is for educators with a basic understanding of the key features of Google Apps as well as well as an understanding of how to meaningfully use technology in the classroom.
Level 2: The Level 2 Google Certified Educator status indicates “indicates that an educator can successfully integrate a wider range of Google for Education tools and other technologies to transform their teaching practice.” This is for educators with a deeper understanding of Google Apps and advanced technology integration skills.
(Note: Level 1 status is NOT a prerequisite for Level 2. You can skip Level 1, but it isn’t recommended.)
