<p>You can take all the classes for free but, to get the title of "Google Certified Trainer," you have to take six tests, which are $15 each (a total of $90). Like I said, though, you can get all the information for free and it'll probably help you a lot. I'm just in the beginning stages of the course, but I've already learned quite a bit.</p>

<p>We just implemented Google Apps for Education and rolled out accounts for all of the Elementary students in Jan. It was pretty easy to setup and the price was right...FREE. We were also able to separate the Elementary from the Secondary accounts into different groups so that we could turn off the email for the Elementary students while still allowing calendar and document sharing. </p>

<p>Admin: To setup Google Apps for Ed, you don't even need to pay for webhosting. If the school has a website, you can simply create the Google Accounts for Ed under the existing domain (or a separate subdomain).</p>

Thank you! Do you mind if I share this information with my Graduate class?<br />
<br />
I bought my own domain (well at least I think) a few years ago from GoDaddy for a easy address for students to get to the website that I was using during student teaching. I had no idea that I could use it to set up an administrator account. Right now I have everything under regular Google except the one class website.

I bought my own domain (well at least I think) a few years ago from GoDaddy for a easy address for students to get to the website that I was using during student teaching. I had no idea that I could use it to set up an administrator account. Right now I have everything under regular Google except the one class website. Are the students able to "transfer" their accounts to regular Google after they are done with your class? I will be working with military families and I am trying to figure out ways to help ease the unique stresses they have. I feel that using cloud based applications for communicating, student portfolios, and other things could really elevate some of those stresses and give the students the experience of 21st century learning environments.<br />

Do you have them set up under a domain, or are they using regular Google.<br />
<br />
The advantage of creating a domain (about ten dollars) is that you are administrator, they don't need e-mails, and they can't get outside of your network. Essentially you sign them up, instead of having their parents sign them up from home. If you have a spreadsheet of their usernames and passwords, you can upload all of your students' files using CSV (comma separated value) files.<br />
