Google AdWords Certification

[htrowsoc]

I'm looking to take a Google AdWords course so that i'm 'certified'. Has anyone done this as an individual? Not sure how to go about it. Thanks

I did it a number of years ago and then had to renew a couple of years ago. You just do it via the micro site they use for it. The first one was quite easy but as I don't personally manage ads these days I found the second one tough and barely passed.

The second one I did had quite a few questions regarding trademarks, so it's worth reading up some of the Adwords blogs concerning rules on advertising, not just how to set up and manage campaigns.

One of the juniors on our ppc team who has only been doing this for a year scored 99% a couple of months ago. See if you can beat that.

Thanks, do you have a link to the test? Or do you have to log in to your account first?
