Greetings from Orel !

Hi there everyone, my name is Orel and I'm  an IT support specialist, within the health industry.

By the way, I'm from Israel. Please read to the end, funny stuff to come..

I am super excited to start my journey with GCP.

Google was my first choice for cloud education, as Google is an inspiring growing organisation, for my point of view.

My goal is to learn all the way to become certified GCP architect.

However, the way I begun my learning is a bit funny. So, of course I googled about Google's training, and I found the Cloud Architect route. For some reason I assumed it is the first or only step in GCP learning. Close to the finish of 1 out of 7 courses in Coursera's preperation for architect, I found that it is actually the highest level availeble in this field, and that there are two levels before! (Engineer and Digital Leader)

So, as I found myself actually getting along in the Architect learning path, I decided to learn also towards Digital Leader, as I want to cover all the levels.

p.s

Qwiklabs' labs through Coursera are great!

Thank you for sticking out to the end of this log!

hi @ubriga 
The path to the clouds is very wide..
My case is also similar, I have experience in systems and development in the IT area.

I searched for information and I really liked the path of Google Cloud. The labs are excellent.

I was also looking for the knowledge to become Cloud DevOps but seeing everything is very broad, I am currently delving into Architecture and the fundamentals of cloud infrastructure.

It is surprising how much knowledge you must have to master everything..

I was just thinking that. There are so many fields.

In my opinion, when I'll get certified, I will think of specializing within one of GCP's capabilities.
