Google Cloud Examination Pricing in India

[kasinadhsarma]

In Indian pricing, there is a significant skill-based cost, and with the exchange rate of $1 = 82 rupees, an average father's monthly income is around 10,000 rupees. How can we make these exams affordable? Please consider setting a middle-ground price that aligns with the average income in India. This will encourage more individuals to pursue cloud examination certifications, and in turn, I plan to train students in these skills.

Coursera offers certificates, but they lack practical experience. On the other hand, Arcade has a points system, and I have attempted The Arcade Certification Zone to rank in the top 20. However, time constraints often lead to incomplete attempts. It's essential to notify candidates well in advance. Many companies demand skills from the average Indian student, but the students are not adequately prepared for such certifications and training.

I aspire to initiate a revolution for Indian students to learn technology development. The average BTech student lacks exposure to research and development in India, yet they need jobs. This scenario seems impossible to overcome. Let's work together to make the prices more affordable and accessible for Indian students.
