Learn with Communities: Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about account eligibility, badge qualification rules, and tracking your program completions.
If your college has an active GDG on Campus chapter: It is recommended that you use your own college's referral code and select your campus organizer on the registration form to support your local chapter.
If your college does not have a GDG on Campus chapter: You are welcome to participate through our community! In that case, use the referral code provided in the registration guide (GDGC-HCESN) and select the designated organizer so your registration and progress are properly tracked.
We strongly recommend creating a fresh Google Skills account to participate. This ensures that all 10 syllabus badges are available for you to earn from scratch with zero confusion.
You can use an existing account, but you must keep in mind:
- Only badges completed during the official timeline (October 15, 2026 – November 23, 2026) count toward your campaign qualification.
- Any syllabus badge you completed prior to October 15 cannot be re-earned.
- If you have already completed more than 5 of the 10 syllabus badges in the past, you will not have enough remaining badges to achieve the minimum Tier 1 threshold (5 badges) on that profile.
To avoid any burned badges or eligibility problems, starting with a new account is the safest approach.
Any badge earned prior to October 15, 2026 is recognized as completed beforehand and is ineligible to count toward this campaign.
As long as you have at least 5 uncompleted badges remaining in the syllabus, you can still qualify for Tier 1. You can enter your profile URL in the Syllabus & Progress Tracking section on this hub—our system will automatically inspect your profile, flag any badges earned too early, and tell you if Tier 1 is still achievable.
However, if 6 or more badges are already completed before the timeline, you will not be able to hit the 5-badge minimum on that profile and will need to participate using a new account.
