Thirty-Second Google Cloud Jumpstart Session Recap: One Year Anniversary
January 18, 2023 is my one-year anniversary of being in the Google Cloud Jumpstart Associate Cloud Engineer Program. It has been an eventful year for my GCP cloud journey.
I will admit that I have not completed the entire Associate Cloud Engineer (ACE) Cloud Skills Boost learning track to receive the free exam voucher. Part of the reason is because I have learned that I may not need the ACE for what I want to do with Google Cloud.
What I will say is that my tenure in this program has made me a much better cloud professional. I am thankful to GCP for its career development program. I have learned what a partner engineer is; the exact definition of a cloud engineer, technical account manager and site reliability engineer. Google is based in search so it has the best definitions of all cloud providers.
Finally, I am very happy to have registered for the GCP mentoring. I have been in this program for 7 months and I have grown professionally from it. I am very happy to have received two informational interviews helping clarify Terraform use cases and what a cloud architect does. These interviews help me craft a better cloud resume and examine which cloud certification I pursue.
