Hi everyone! Just want to ask...if I disable my adwords ads ( like for 1 month), will it affect my Google Qualified Professional status? I have passed the GAP exam and I am thinking of freezing my adwords ads for awhile.
I don't think so. I think once you are qualified, you are fine for two or three years (recalling from memory) until you have to re-certify again. I think those requirements are just at the beginning so you actually know what you are doing when you take the exam, and not have cheated or just memorized a book to pass it.
No - the validity of GAP exam is just for one year ...every year you have to appear for the new exam if you want to maintain your status.....i have recently appeared for the GAP exam and if i am not linking that to any adwords account then after 3 months my GAP certification will expire....
Hey Bevstar, Pls read online as if you are using expired certificate then it may cause you...as my company has taken very serious issue on my expired certificate than i appeared for new exam...
Pausing your ads won't affect your qualified status at all, but as others have said, your qualification is valid for just one year so it will run out eventually
