Boost your Digital Knowledge: Learning with Google's Digital Garage

I just received an email from Google telling me about its online Digital Garage.

What is the Digital Garage?

The Digital Garage is your one-stop shop for mastering digital marketing. If you have what it takes to complete each of the 23 topics and unlock every badge, you can earn the esteemed Digital Garage Certificate of Online Proficiency. There are free courses on everything from search to social media, to help you grow your business or career.

Basically just watch each video, then click put into practice and you'll be given a question about the video you just watched with a series of answers to click on. Get them all right and you'll be able to move on to the next course. Complete each module correctly and you'll be given a badge.

What's a badge?

A badge is a digital recognition that you'll receive when you successfully complete a topic in The Digital Garage. It's a prize that you can brag about to your family and friends (and boss!) Badges belong to openbadges.org.

Get certified by Google!

Using Google's Digital Garage you can kickstart your career with an impressive digital certification. Google's free online courses will guide you through everything from search engines, to social media and beyond.

Why get certified?

A certification is a great way to make your CV shine. It shows you’ve got genuine digital skills, and that you are motivated to learn: two essential qualities in today’s business world.

Get the Certification

Google has partnered with the Interactive Advertising Bureau to offer a free certification for those who finish and complete the course. The content covers the basics and beyond, to help you build a great foundation of digital skills. And you can showcase this qualification on your CV and LinkedIn profile too.

I've already started the course and sailed through the first two courses. But they do get a little harder and harder to complete each time. So if you'll want to actually pass each course you should watch the video intently and learn from what's said.


What Will You Learn?

With so many free courses to take in online digital marketing. And a free badge at the end of it to say that you're digitally certified, you could not only use this to improve your skills and knowledge in the world of digital marketing, but also possibly as leverage to help you find employment in the digital marketing industry as well.
