FAQs

Is the Google Cloud Digital Leader worth it?

Whether or not the Cloud Digital Leader certification is worth it for you and your career depends on a few things. First, your experience level at work – highly trained and experienced IT professionals won't benefit much from the entry-level cloud certification, but new IT or non-IT professionals will get a lot out of it. Also, it's best for people whose work includes using (or advocating for) cloud technologies to transform business decisions.

How much does the Cloud Digital Leader cost?

It costs $99 to attempt the Cloud Digital Leader exam. Google's Cloud Digital Leader exam is a 90-minute exam with 50-60 multiple choice questions related to digital transformation, Google cloud solutions, infrastructure modernization, and Google Cloud security and operations. There are no prerequisite exams or certs for the Cloud Digital Leader, and it's valid for three years from the date you pass the exam.

How difficult is the Google Cloud Digital Leader exam?

The Google Cloud Digital Leader has a reputation as one of the tougher certification exams for cloud service practitioner credentials. For brand-new IT professionals, or someone with no previous experience with cloud service management, the certification may be quite challenging. On the other hand, if you've worked with multiple cloud service providers before, or have hands-on experience with Google's suite of cloud tools and services, the exam will be mostly familiar territory.

Who should take this Cloud Digital Leader course?

Anyone who needs to quickly learn the Google Cloud suite of tools should take this course on using, managing and administering the Google Cloud. Maybe you're a project manager or administrator whose company is considering jumping into the cloud – you'll need a good understanding of Google's cloud storage and compute tools. Or maybe you're a new IT administrator – experienced with other clouds but never Google. This short course will get you up to speed.

Is this course and the Google Cloud Digital Leader good for beginners?

Yes, this Google Cloud Digital Leader course is excellent for beginners. It starts with non-technical aspects of traditional and cloud networks before exploring specific tools and services in the Google space. For technical and non-technical professionals alike, this course is an excellent way to learn everything you need to make good decisions about using Google Cloud, migrating to the Google Cloud, and planning new capabilities for your business.

Who is this for?

This Google Cloud Digital Leader training is considered entry-level Google Cloud training, which means it was designed for entry-level DevOps professionals. This Google Cloud Platform skills course is valuable for new IT professionals with at least a year of experience with cloud computing and experienced entry-level DevOps professionals looking to validate their Google Cloud skills.

Having access to on-demand labs that I could spin up instantly was very helpful. I didn’t have to have a home environment with a bunch of virtual machines spun up. Or worry about destroying things.
