‘Googlle’ opens technology certification ‘school’ in India!!!
Read the title again….. ‘GOOGLLE‘
The website for the new school, found here, is as bogus as it gets. Not only does it rip off Google’s logo, but it even uses the same favicon, all whilst having dead links to various web pages. According to TechCrunch, Googlle offers two different certifications: the “GCPA – Googlle Certified Professional in Advanced Computing,” and the “GCPE – Googlle Certified Professional in E-Commerce.” The first certification hopes to educate the students in technologies such as Windows and Linux, and the second teaches skills such as proficiency with Photoshop.
Not only that, but there are also, “Modular courses – duration 60 days to 90 days that can enhance your computer skills and offer you “GOOGLLE” certification, no matter what your specific requirement.” The courses are said to take two years to complete, though, worryingly, the main website shows a campus which apparently doesn’t exist.
