I received the following email today from the Google just in time for the October 31, 2010 switch from the Google Advertising Professionals program to the Google Certification Program.
Google Advertising Professionals Qualification Achieved
With the above notification, both my company Advanced Marketing Consultants and I have met and satisfied all of Google’s Certified Partner requirements.
Qualifications met!
Google Certification Program
More about this later…
Google recently revamped their Adwords qualification program requirements for both individuals and companies.
Their new qualification process is bundled under the Google Certification Program.
Google Certification Program
In order for a company to become qualified an individual associated with the company must have first passed two exams – the Advertising Fundamentals Exam and one advanced-level exam.
Individual Qualification
I was one of the first individuals worldwide to pass the original Adwords Qualified Individual exam years ago.
Because my company appears to meet the new qualifications for becoming a Google Certified Partner, I plan to go through the certification process – again.
