This was one of the best learning I had. Very simple and easy way to do the labs
and understand the concepts. Even though the content is around fundamentals, it
helps to remember the terminologies.

It is an awesome course that let's you understand all (almost all) features of
GCP. That was awesome to me as a software engineer to know better how the
infrastructure can be configurable/developed.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

AM I ELIGIBLE FOR THE GOOGLE CLOUD PLATFORM FREE TRIAL?

To be eligible for the free trial, you will need:

- Google account (Google is currently blocked in China)

- Credit card or bank account

- Terms of service

Note: There is a known issue with certain EU countries where individuals are not
able to sign up, but you may sign up as "business" status and intend to see a
potential economic benefit from the trial. More details at:
https://support.google.com/cloud/answer/6090602

WHAT IF I HAVE ALREADY USED UP MY GOOGLE CLOUD PLATFORM FREE TRIAL?

Platform free trial, you can create another Google account. Your new Google
account should be used to sign up for the free trial.

HOW DOES THE FREE TRIAL WORK?

View this page for more details: https://cloud.google.com/free-trial/docs/

IS THIS COURSE SIMILAR TO CP100A?

Yes, this online course is based on the instructor-led training formerly known
as CP100A.

WHEN WILL I HAVE ACCESS TO THE LECTURES AND ASSIGNMENTS?

Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you
take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for
free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to
purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't
see the audit option:

 * The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead,
   or apply for Financial Aid.

 * The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets
   you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final
   grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate
   experience.

WHAT WILL I GET IF I SUBSCRIBE TO THIS CERTIFICATE?

When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the
Certificate, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your
electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there,
you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile. If you only
want to read and view the course content, you can audit the course for free.

WHAT IS THE REFUND POLICY?

If you subscribed, you get a 7-day free trial during which you can cancel at no
penalty. After that, we don’t give refunds, but you can cancel your subscription
at any time. See our full refund policyOpens in a new tab.
