Google Cloud Skills Directory, powered by Credly, is a searchable database of Google Cloud credential holders, showcasing earner’s verified skills, and connecting them with potential employers. Earners can connect to job opportunities and bring exposure to your Google Cloud skills and credentials.
The Skills Directory exposes the same data as displayed on your digital certificates, including first name, last name, credential name, earn date, and expiration date.
You can add additional details including location (city, country), a link to your resume, work type availability (part time, full time), a short bio blurb, and your professional experience. You can also link your LinkedIn and Twitter profiles.
Employers or peers can search the profiles by credential type, location, and work availability (if listed).

Some of my skill badges are not in my Credential Wallet. Why is that?
- Google Cloud skill badges will be migrated to the Credly platform on a rolling basis, starting on April 1st.
- Google Cloud technologies rapidly evolve. Therefore our team regularly audits the skill badge portfolio for quality and relevance. Most Google Cloud skill badges will be available in your Credly Wallet, but some may be discontinued if they no longer meet our criteria.
