AppsEvents to Launch ACA Level 2 Certification for Google Apps Administration on July 20
We are delighted to finally announce the launch date for our AppsEvents Certified Admin Level 2 Certification on July 20th 2015. The certification builds on our Level 1 certification (which is aimed at absolute beginners to Google Apps Admin) and takes you to the next level.
The certification will be offered in both ‘fully online’ or ‘instructor led’ form and both will launch on July 20th, at the New Hampshire Summit.
The plan for most summits to run the Level 1 certification as a 1 day ‘pre-summit’ course, and the Level 2 during the summit as two regular sessions. We already have the Level 2 course confirmed for our Korea, Singapore and Bangkok summits with more to be announced soon.
As with ‘Level 1’ the focus is 100% on the specifics of running a Google Apps domain at a school. The focus is largely on third party administration tools which are invaluable for simplifying administration. We also get you quickly up to speed on managing the use of Chrome browser, Chromebooks and tablets across the school.
For those who paid for the Level 1 certification we will be sending you a code for early access to Level 2 the week before the launch on the 20th.
