Friends In The Cloud!

Learning cloud skills is fun—but doing it with your friends? That’s even better!

This Friendship Day, let’s celebrate the teammates who keep us going—whether it’s cheering you through a tough Skills Boost Arcade challenge, earning your next Arcade Point, or just sending that, “Did you complete the latest Arcade Game?” ping at midnight.

:backhand_index_pointing_right:t2: Go ahead, tag your Skills Boost Arcade buddies—the ones who make cloud learning unforgettable.
:backhand_index_pointing_right:t2: Got a fun story, a close call on a challenge, or an inside joke from a challenge? Share it in the comments!

Because friends who skill up together, win together!

And here’s more to cheer about– your other friends in the cloud, the Arcade Facilitators, are coming back soon!

They’ve been your guides, your biggest cheerleaders, and your go-to lab partners—and they’re ready to jump back in to learn with you, laugh with you, and help you level up like never before.

So whether it’s tackling new challenges or unlocking new milestones—get ready to do it all, together again.

See you In The Cloud!

Enrolment forms a mandate to create a new account on Google Cloud Skills Boost with a different email ID. I will have multiple learning badges in my present email. I like to continue the same email to keep track of learning in the one account. Please clarify I can use the same email ID.

@manikandank276 It depends on the individual’s learning plan and specific goals.

If you completed fewer skill badges with the previous Skills Boost ID, and want to aim for higher milestone or prize tier , you can continue using with same Gmail ID as there are 84 skill badges available.

Please note that skill badges completed prior to 7th July 2025 will not be eligible for points in Arcade 2025 Season 2 (7th July 2025 to December 2025.)

Please note that only skill badges completed between 4th August 2025 and 6th October 2025 will be considered for Facilitator 2025 Cohort 2 milestones. Skill badges earned before 4th August 2025 or after 6th October 2025 will not be eligible.

I hope this clarification is helpful.

Hi Google Arcade Facilitator Team,

I’ve enrolled in the Google Arcade Facilitator program without choosing a referral code. Although I’ve completed most of the labs for Milestone 1 on my own, I haven’t been assigned a facilitator yet. Could you please clarify if I’m still eligible for swags without a facilitator? I’d appreciate an update on my status and any further steps I need to take.
