We offer targeted, concise micro-courses that include a hands-on challenge, and then our graders review your submission and provide *human* feedback.  You even can earn badges along the way!

We do!  You earn credit for each micro-course you complete, but many of them also include a badge that demonstrates competency in that area.

Our certified educators ensure feedback within 48 hours. However, our typical response time is in half that time.

Preparing for the Level 1 exam can vary greatly depending on your level of familiarity with G Suite tools.  It might take one educator just a couple of hours to review and ensure that he/she is ready to approach level 1 or 2.  On the other hand, if you have a great deal to learn and practice in order to prepare, it might take you several weeks to engage in preparation.

We are releasing a new track soon called “Trainer in 20”.  While this is designed to take you through the application creation in 20 days, it might take you more or less time depending on your own pacing and experience.  You could complete this as quickly as a few days or less if you really tackled it, but it may take you a little longer depending on how much training you have done at your school and   how much time you have to dedicate to the process.  You can do it!

Once you submit an application to become a Google Certified Trainer, you will hear back from Google in 4-6 weeks.  

• All videos are less than five minutes since we have broken up each application into convenient pieces so you can easily personalize your learning. 
• Note: The challenges will vary in the time it takes to complete them.

• We recommend that newbies or those needing a refresher begin with our “G Suite Basics” certification goal.
• If you aren’t exactly sure where to begin from there, our course “Docs: Sharing is Caring” is a great place to start since this is where we see the most errors with teacher submissions.  
• After that, we suggest that you filter the micro-courses based on your interest or any school/district initiatives that might be in place (ex: Google Classroom requirement for all teachers)

We recommend that you do a short survey to your teachers to gauge interest.  You may also want to consider choosing those that could redeliver some short trainings to your other teachers.  We have a survey available for you if you’d like to use it to identify strong candidates!

Because our platform allows teachers to keep track of what courses they have completed, we do not allow licenses to be transferred to another teacher.  If you have an extenuating circumstance or a teacher who has never taken a course and you’d like to transfer the license, please submit a support ticket.

While the time it takes to complete micro-courses varies, we recommend to districts that three (3) of our micro-courses be counted as one hour of PD credit.

We can provide you with a template to share district- or school-specific content with your teachers.  They can even earn custom badges if you wish.  Please consult with us before partnering with us if you are considering this option

Subscriptions are typically for one calendar year unless there is a special circumstance.

While you will earn credit for each course you complete in our platform, you will actually be able to earn a digital badge for select micro-courses.  A badge will showcase your competency with specific Google tools, such as Classroom or YouTube.  Badged courses will be marked with a star icon at the top right hand side of the micro-course card in your course library.

Obtaining your trainer’s certificate is a bit more involved than simply taking an exam, but we will walk you through it!  You will have to gather some documentation of trainings you have conducted, create a video about yourself and one G Suite tool, and take a shorter multiple-choice exam.  Then, you will complete the application and submit!

We have certified educators at MobileMind who provide feedback to teachers as they learn in our platform.

At this time, we only have subscriptions available for a minimum of 25 licenses for a school/district.

Your district or school PD Lead or administrator will enter all names and email addresses into a spreadsheet (provided by MobileMind), and then we will upload them into our system.
