What Does It Mean to Be a Google Certified Educator?

Even though you don't need a certificate to use Google tools, it's nice to be recognized for your expertise.  Becoming a Google certified educator gives you that "proof" that you know your stuff when it comes to GSuite tools in education!  Why would I recommend taking the time to do this? 
​

My Top 3 Reasons for Becoming A Google Certified Educator? 

There are lots of reasons to become a Google certified educator. I personally am a "life-long learning geek" when it comes to implementing new tech tools with teachers and students.  A bonus, is the certificate and badge you get upon completion of each level of certification.  I'm not sure why a badge is so exciting, but I love them (especially as a part of my email signature)!
​That being said, here are my main reasons for encouraging others to become certified. 
​
⓵ Learn the most up-to-date information about GSuite tools for educators.

⓶ Professional development at your own pace in your own place. 

⓷ Find a network of like minded educators to connect with, and learn from across the globe. 
​

What Types of Certifications Are Available? 

  • Google Educator Level 1: Prove your proficiency of Google tools in the classroom with this certification. 
  • Google Educator Level 2: Take it a step further and show your rock star level of expertise for using Google tools in the classroom with this certification.
  • Google Certified Trainers: Show you are a Google Guru with the next level of training and become qualified to provide training to schools and districts.  *GAME CHANGER 
  • Google Certified Innovators:  This level is for those who strive to create "true change" as an "innovative leader" where you will "join a community of more than 1,500 passionate educators in over 50 countries who are designing creative solutions to the world's toughest challenges in education".  *NEXT GOAL!

I'm Convinced! Where Do I Start? 

This is where Kasey Bell from Shake Up Learning, comes in!  She has the most amazing courses created to help educators prepare for each level of certification.  I truly believe, she's the reason why I made it as a Certified Trainer the first time I applied.   The courses just opened and enrollment is open until June 4,2019 (Do it now...it only opens twice a year)!  Watch below for more information, then click on the Wakelet collection below when you are ready to register!

You can also listen to Episode 13 of the Shake Up Learning Podcast to hear more about the courses available.  I promise Y'all, these courses are totally worth it! Even if you don't register for a course, check out the show notes for TONS of resource links!
