SPEAKER: Our program helps students learn, build,
and get certified on Google Cloud Platform.
The Associate Cloud engineer track
consists of the following benefits.
First, students and faculty receive a 100% discount
to pursue the architecting with Google Cloud Platform
specialization on Coursera.
In addition, we are also making hands-on training
available in the form of self-based labs on Qwiklabs.
Here, again, there's a 100% discount
to access the Cloud Architecture Quest and other labs.
Finally, we want both students and faculty
to prepare for certification.
To prepare for and earn the Associate Cloud Engineer
Certification, faculty who have completed the specialization
receive a 100% discount on the certification exam.
A student discount is also available.
Students who are familiar with basic concepts related
to operating systems, networking, databases,
and programming are good candidates for this program.
What do you and your students learn in the Associate Cloud
Engineer Track?
The Architecting with Google Cloud Platform Specialization
on Coursera comprises six courses.
The specialization introduces learners
to the comprehensive and flexible infrastructure
and platform services provided by Google Cloud Platform.
Through a combination of presentations,
demos, and hands on labs, learners explore and deploy
solution elements, including infrastructure components
such as networks, systems, and application services.
This course also covers deploying practical solutions,
including securely interconnecting networks,
customer supplied encryption keys, security and access
management, coders and billing, and resource monitoring.
In the cloud architecture quests spanning 11 hours
the labs have been curated to give learners
hands on practice with topics and services
that appear in the Associate Cloud Engineer Certification
exam.
From IAM, to networking, to Kubernetes engine deployment,
this quest is composed of specific labs that will put
your GCP knowledge to the test.
In addition to this quest, learners also
have access to other labs.
The Associate Cloud Engineer track
must be completed in 16 weeks.
This slide shows a suggested timeline.
Complete the Architecting with Google Cloud Platform
Specialization within the first nine weeks.
Complete the Cloud Architecture Quest
and additional hands-on labs by week 16.
Complete the Associate Cloud Engineer Certification exam
before the voucher expiration date.
Students can definitely race ahead of the timeline.
Learners completing the Architecting
with Google Cloud Platform Specialization
will earn a Coursera completion certificate,
which can be shared with prospective employers
and a professional network.
The Associate Cloud Engineer Certification exam objectively
measures an individual's ability to demonstrate the critical job
skills required for the role.
The exam duration is two hours.
The format is multiple choice and multiple select.
This exam must be taken in person
at one of our testing center locations.

Some of the faculty responsibilities
are registering for and attending online onboarding
sessions, enrolling and managing students
on your Coursera program--
ideally your cohort has 60 to 200 students per faculty,
monitoring student's learning progress and nudging students
who may be falling behind.
conducting study jams to support student's learning progress--
study jams are essentially workshops that you conduct
with your students, earning your Associate Cloud Engineer
Certification, and encouraging students
to become certified to validate technical expertise.
For more information, refer to the faculty FAQs.
Google Cloud has ensured that you, as faculty,
are enabled to run this program successfully
in your college or institution.
You get administrative access on Coursera
to monitor students learning progress in real time.
