Exciting Times... Google for Education Certified Trainer!

Over the holidays I took the time to do a couple of online courses and things... Hapara Champion, learning about computational thinking (this video is awesome) and apply to be a Google for Education Certified Trainer. 

I was overjoyed last week when I received this email: 
"On behalf of Google, it is my pleasure to welcome you to the Google For Education Certified Trainer Program! After reviewing your application, we believe that you have the experience and passion necessary to positively impact education by helping teachers transform teaching and learning with technology."

For this program I had to submit a few things... a case study, a certificate from the online course and a video explaining who I am and then moving on to teaching a skill. 
Here is my video for those of you who would like to see it:
And here is my certificate!!! 

I am more than excited to be able to be a part of this program and am looking forward to all the things I can learn and add to my knowledge!
