Following last year, Google Cloud Study Jam application has started this year as well.
The application period is until April 1st (Wed) at 10:00 AM, and you need to complete it by June 1st.
If you refer to the article I wrote about participating last year and writing a review, you will be able to understand what kind of format it proceeds in.

Commemorative gift received after completing last year. Don't expect too much quality.. hehe
What is Google Study Jam?
Google Study Jam is an online learning program hosted by Google, providing lectures and practical training in various fields such as Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), and Kubernetes for developers and IT professionals.
Participants listen to lectures online, complete practical assignments, learn cloud technologies through self-study, perform related practical training, and can receive digital badges and certificates of completion gifts.
Last year there was AI, and this year even if it's Cloud, there won't be much difference.
Simply, you can receive credits and use everything supported by Google such as GCP (Google Console Platform), Gemini, Vertex AI, Notebook, etc. for free for two months, and the biggest advantage is that you can practice not only theory but also hands-on practice.
Agents are trending these days, and I think agent functionality will probably be available as well. (This is not accurate.)
Since it's until April 1st, apply quickly and participate. Anyone can use it if they participate, but..
I remember that not many people go all the way and complete it. Of course, you don't necessarily need to go all the way.
To receive a gift, you must complete a specific course.
For more details, please read the review of last year's participation above. I have described it in detail.
(I remember that about 3,600 or 4,000 people applied last year, and about a hundred people completed it to the end.)
