1. Study material from Google for Education Training Center
Start your personal learning journey in online Google for Education Training Center here:
https://edutrainingcenter.withgoogle.com/
If you are new to Google tools, I suggest you take Fundamental Training and if you're familiar with Google tools, you can take Advanced Training. For Fundamental Training, you need to complete 13 exciting chapters that will enrich your educational experiences
My tips: Read the material and complete all lesson check and unit review as it will provide great opportunity you to practice Google tools and prepare your exam. Also, some of the question in the unit reviews have similar format with the real exam.
