Google Launches Online Learning Program: How To Become A Professional Without Leaving Your Home

Google has launched a distance learning program for professionals that is designed to largely replace traditional higher education. Within six months, students will take online courses, after which they will be able to get a job in a number of large companies that have supported this initiative. This is stated on program website.

The company offers education in 5 fast growing industries:

  • IT Pros (Troubleshoot issues to keep computers and networks working properly).
  • Data Analysts (collect, transform, and organize data to help make informed business decisions).
  • Project manager (provide management of projects within the organization and their implementation with maximum efficiency).
  • UX designers (make digital and physical products easier and more enjoyable to use).
  • Android Developers (Build, maintain, and debug Android mobile apps).

The company has formed an alliance of 50 major employers who must lead by example in approving such courses. Among them: H&R, PNC, Bank of America, Walmart, Intel, British EY and Penguin Random House and others.

At the same time, employers gain access to job search boards for graduates of such courses, and the students themselves will have the opportunity to find their place without requiring a standard higher education diploma.

The company claims that it does not require any special skills in the chosen field to complete the courses. Moreover, all training takes place exclusively online.

«Сертификаты полностью доступны онлайн, поэтому нет необходимости приходить в класс лично. Вы можете получить доступ к своим обучающим видео, чтениям и заданиям в любое время и в любом месте через интернет или свое мобильное устройство», — отмечает Google.

The cost of such training is relatively low.

Training will cost $ 39 per month with a subscription to Coursera. Access to the Google Associate Android Developer Certification training is free, and an official $ 149 exam fee is paid by Trueability to administer the exam.
