In July, Google announced learning opportunities that could boost or even jump-start a person’s career. The aim of the new Google Career Certificate program is to help everyone – from those who make up the workforce of today to the students who will drive the workforce of tomorrow.
Earning the Google Career Certificate is an important first step, and graduates will also be supported in the next step — the job search. Google created a hiring consortium for the new certificates, along with apprenticeship opportunities at Google to provide graduates with on-the-job training. Once a graduate completes the program, they can share their information directly with top employers hiring for jobs in these fields. So far, participating employers include:
Below are descriptions of the courses and the median salary wage for each position.

User experience (UX) designers make technology easier and more enjoyable to use. They create or refine products and interfaces to make them useful, usable, and accessible to users. This certificate teaches learners the foundations of UX design and research, building low-fidelity designs and wireframes, creating high-fidelity prototypes, and testing.

Project managers are responsible for planning and overseeing projects to ensure they are completed efficiently with maximum quality and value added to the business. The Google certificate focuses on the foundations of traditional project management, while also offering insight into agile project management.

Anyone can pre-register for the newest programs (data analyst, UX designer, and program managers) at grow.google/certificates, and they will be notified once the courses are launched.
