Set up your account

Sign up

When you sign up for Skillshop, you'll first create an account using your Google Account.

Here's some important information to keep in mind when deciding which email address to sign up with:

  • Regularly used email address: You'll want to use an email address that you check often. That way, you won't miss out on communications from Skillshop, such as news, special invitations, promotions, and more.
  • Email associated with a Google Account: This can be a Gmail address or non-Gmail address, such as your work email address. The email address should ideally be the same address you use to access Google ad products. If you use a non-Gmail address, make sure that the email address is linked to your Google Account.

After you've signed up

Review and update your profile

When you sign in to Skillshop for the first time, you'll land on the Catalog page. After you sign in, you can go to your profile and update your fields, including your company name and data sharing status. You'll also want to add a recovery email address to stay connected to Skillshop no matter where you work. The recovery email should be an address that you own that's separate from any address that you may have previously entered.

Steps for updating your profile
  1. Sign in to Skillshop.
  2. Next, add your company name. Adding your company name will allow your company to pull reports of your learning progress and view your earned achievements and certifications.
  3. Update your timezone.
  4. Select your preferred language. The language you choose here will be used to filter the learning content and assessments based on your preferred language.
  5. Select whether you want to get emails from Skillshop. We recommend that you choose to  get emails from Skillshop since they're the primary way to get information about recommended courses, surveys, and promotions.
  6. Enter your Recovery email so you can recover your account in case you lose access to the email you used to set up your account.
  7. To share your Skillshop account information with your Company and / or Google please scroll down to Share my Skillshop account information:  Link my Skillshop account with my Google Accounts (Google Ads, YouTube, Google Marketing Platform, etc) to share my progress on Skillshop with those accounts.” 
    1. Choose the option that best meets your needs and click on that button. 
    2. Review Data Sharing Agreement and select ‘Agree and Continue’
  8. Click Save.

We'll send you an email to confirm your email address. Once you confirm your email address, you can stay connected to Skillshop no matter where you work.
