Hi,
My daughter has been taking Google IT Support classes via TADA Coursera. Today she completed Week 6 and received her certification labeled Google Technical Support Fundamentals. Then she noticed a new section popped after she finished the Fundamentals certification that says "2 of 5" - Intro to IT.
Crazy question:
Is this Intro to IT a separate IT course or a necessary section of the Google IT Support certification?
If it's another necessary part of the Google IT Support certification, I'm not sure if it's worth pursuing until we know if ACE will re-certify the Google IT Support certificate.
Anyone heard if Google is pursuing this with ACE?
Thanks!

It will be interesting to see how this develops and what it means for platforms like Study.com. If Google does pursue this, it could lead to significant improvements in the way we access and use educational materials.

Wow, that's an awesome spam with a hidden link in the quotes of the OP... I missed it the first time!
As your post itself doesn't have the spam link, but you edited your post to include it in the quotes of the OP.
Spammers are getting more and more creative yet tricky... It's hard to catch these...
