Are you interested in becoming a Google Cloud Platform certified professional?

Last year, I took five out of the seven (at the time of this writing) of the GCP professional exams:

• Professional Cloud Architect
• Professional Data Engineer
• Professional Cloud Security Engineer
• Professional Cloud Network Engineer
• Professional Cloud Developer

In this post, I’ll share some information about the exams, my strategies for passing them, as well as a link to the study guides I created along the way. These guides have been battle tested by more than a hundred professionals (so far) who successfully got certified with their help.
