Google Cloud Platform MasterClass : 4 GCP Certification in 1 (Udemy.com)
Google Cloud Certified Associate Engineer, Google Cloud Professional Architect, GCP Cloud Data & Security Engineer
Created by: TechLynk Selenium
Last updated April 2023
Our take
Based on the ratings of 254 students, a sample of their written reviews and the syllabus, as the course stood in April 2023. No course pays to be reviewed.
This is a free, short introduction to Google Cloud, not the four-exam program its description promises. The syllabus shows a single section with eight lectures and about 53 minutes of video, plus two articles. The description lists the Associate Cloud Engineer, Professional Cloud Architect, Security Engineer and Data Engineer exams, but there are no quizzes, practice tests or coding exercises listed. It suits someone who wants a quick first look at the platform and expects nothing more.
Reviewers are divided, and the split fits the mismatch. Of 254 ratings, 190 are four or five stars. One happy student says a hands-on lesson walked them through deploying RabbitMQ to Google Cloud step by step and found it simple. Meanwhile 24 ratings are one or two stars, and one of those reviewers calls the course a marketing brochure for some other class and says none of the material from the introduction appears in the videos. The instructor, TechLynk Selenium, promises a slow, step by step style, though the reviews we have say little about delivery.
With 10,308 students and no cost, the risk is roughly 53 minutes of your time. The last update was April 2023, and the description still talks about a May 2021 refresh, so expect some dated material. Anyone preparing for a Google Cloud exam will need a longer course with practice questions. Use this one only as a free preview, and check the lecture list before counting on it for anything else.
Pros
- Free, and the whole thing can be watched in under an hour
- One reviewer who liked it describes a step by step, hands-on deployment to Google Cloud
- 190 of 254 ratings are four or five stars
- The description says no prior Google Cloud or cloud knowledge is assumed
Cons
- Only eight lectures and 53 minutes, nowhere near four exams' worth of material
- No quizzes, practice tests or exercises despite the exam prep pitch
- Last updated April 2023, so some details may be dated
This looks like a marketing brochure to sell some other class. None of the material mentioned in the course introduction are in any videos in this "class".
Listed for all levels, but it really suits true beginners; the only requirement is a willingness to learn.

Google Cloud Associate Cloud Engineer
Google Cloud Professional Cloud Architect
Google Cloud Professional Security Engineer
Google Cloud Professional Cloud Data Engineer
Google Cloud Professional Cloud Developer - Not yet covered

Each Certification gives an additional dimension about Google Cloud Platform and this Course is committed to giving you will give you 360 view of the Google Cloud platform so - you don't have to refer to any other course.
After completing the GCP Architecture path you’ll have the core hands-on knowledge and skills needed to be a GCP architect. You’ll start by learning the basics of how GCP works, what its foundational services are, and how they fit together. These first levels of applied learning around best practices for GCP architecture, networking, databases, and application deployment culminate in you sitting your first GCP certification exam(s). You’ll move onto advanced specialized knowledge in machine learning, security, and DevOps to expand your skillset and prepare you for professional-level GCP certification exams. These training paths are flexible so you can skip what you know and start at the appropriate level, whether you're a total beginner or looking to take your Google Cloud Architecture skills to the next level. And as with all ACG learning, there is a major focus on practical learning through hands-on labs.
This path includes four certifications: Google Certified Associate Cloud Engineer, Google Certified Professional Cloud Architect, Google Certified Professional Cloud Security Engineer, Google Certified Professional Data Engineer
The course does not assume you have knowledge of Google Cloud Platform or any cloud Platform. We cover almost everything on GCP to become "Hero" from whatever your current GCP understanding (it may be Zero or Beginning or Intermediate)
Advance Students - Joining this course only for certification -> Please at least run through the foundation section once for you to understand the certification syllabus.
Why waste time learning the same foundation concepts again and again for each certification around the same technology. This course is divided into the section where you learn all concepts in one course and then focus individually on each certification - Incrementally.
Why Pay for Every Certifications course and sometimes you don't even appear for certification. This course will help you to pay only once and plan for any certification on the Google Cloud Platform.

Sometimes, reaching out and taking someone's hand is the beginning of a journey. We often need someone to helps us take the first few steps before we get a master's in that move.
This is the vision we have behind all of our courses 'Step by Step'
1. Start from scratch
2. Break down the topic
3. Simplify things
4. Go step by step
Teaching is our passion and we design every course so you can start from scratch, knowing nothing about a topic and become an expert after the course and can work on enterprise projects.
Do not worry if you do not have any existing knowledge of the subject. We will go very basic, step by step.
Let's Get Started...
