Training, Not Cloud Money

Google Skills credits pay for labs, skill badges and courses (formerly Cloud Skills Boost). They are not Google Cloud billing credits.

Country List

The offer covers about 90 countries, including the US, UK, Canada, Australia, Germany and Ireland.

Before You Sign Up

Read the current terms before you pay. Student offers can change without notice. Is the deal part of a subscription? Check the price after the discounted period. Then set a reminder before it renews.

How Verification Works

Have your student email, ID or enrolment letter ready. The brand may ask for proof before the student price applies. Keep any confirmation email in case questions come up later. That helps when you renew or upgrade.

Bottom Line

It costs nothing, so claim it if you will use it. Check what happens when your student status ends. That way a paid plan never starts without you noticing.

Compare the Alternatives

Before you buy, look at the alternatives linked on this page. Another brand may have a bigger student discount. It may also have a lower starting price. Check the final price with tax included. Add shipping too if you are ordering a physical product. The headline discount is not the whole story.
