        This program is designed for cloud architects with experience in designing, planning, and managing robust cloud solutions. Foundation in cloud concepts, networking, and system administration is essential.

      • Is this program self-paced or live?

        The entire course is self-paced along with the flexibility to join the live classes for key modules.

      • How long does it take to complete this program?

        This Professional certificate training program is designed to be completed within 15 weeks, with a recommended study pace of around five hours per week. Learners have access to the program's content and labs for six months from the date of enrollment.

      • What if I miss any live training sessions?

        While attending live sessions allows you to ask questions in real-time, recordings of all sessions are available for enrolled learners.

      • Do I need to take all the modules in a specific order?

        The platform allows for flexibility in course order. However, we recommend following the prescribed sequence for core courses, beginning with Google Cloud Fundamentals. Further, Google Cloud’s hands-on labs also build upon concepts introduced in preceding courses.

      • Is in-person attendance required for this program?

        This program is delivered entirely online. It comprises pre-recorded self-paced content from Google, supplemented by live training sessions for key modules. Learners can access all course materials, including lectures, readings, and assignments, at their convenience.

      • Can I enroll in one or more modules instead of the entire certification program?

        Individual modules are only available for one purchase. However, learners can selectively complete specific modules within the program. The program certificate can be unlocked upon completing 8/10 modules in the learning path (excluding the induction).

      • How many times can I access a single lab?

        We recommend completing each lab exercise in a single session. The platform allows a maximum of three attempts per lab for each learner. Progress made within a session doesn't carry over to subsequent attempts.

      • What certification will I receive after completing the course?

        Learners will earn a certificate from Google Cloud and Simplilearn upon completion, as well as individual course certificates for each module.

      • Will I receive the Google Cloud Professional Cloud Architect certification upon program completion?

        No. This program prepares you for the Google Cloud Professional Cloud Architect certification exam, but it does not include the exam itself. You will need to register and pay for the certification exam separately through Google Cloud.

      • Does the program cost include the Google Cloud certification exam fee?

        No, the cost of the Google Cloud certification exam is not included in the program fee.

      • What is the frequency of live sessions?

        Live classes are conducted every quarter for the key modules.
