Training made easy, wherever you are

A recent survey noted that the number of individuals learning to code online increased from 60% in 2020 to 70% in 2021. Last year, we were the first cloud provider to launch a learning subscription to help address the developer skills shortage. We committed to equipping 40 million people with cloud skills with Google Cloud Skills Boost, which provides learners with online courses, skills development, and certifications. Google Cloud Skills Boost is available for learners globally, and offers training resources in languages including Arabic, Bahasa, Brazilian Portuguese, Chinese, English, French, German, Hebrew, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Spanish, Turkish, and Ukrainian. With Google Cloud Skills Boost, our goal is to make it easier to get started and grow their cloud skills.
