Update from Google Team regarding the current ongoing issue:

Please note that if we are NOT able to extend the monsoon challenge because of these issues, then rest be assured that we will certainly do some other activity using which users will be able to earn extra points later.

Right now, do remember that the important part is to provide everyone with a great experience. If we extend the deadline, that would mean users experiencing more issues as the outage will not get fixed until the traffic decreases.

So do feel free to share this with your users and ask them to certainly keep an completing their labs/skill badges if they are able to amidst these issues but at the same time, DO NOT worry as we will certainly compensate them for this lost time in the future. Remember, we still have a LOT OF DAYS left in the program, so we will surely make a difference to cover up for this loss. YOU CAN TRUST US!

🚨 *IMPORTANT UPDATE* 🚨

✔️ *Student Progress Reports and Lab Limits*
As Google Team are constantly evaluating and trying to find users who are taking advantage of the platform by performing irregular activities on the Google Cloud Skills Boost platform, they had to delay the student progress emails by a few more days. 😞

We know that with the lack of visibility in reports and the lab limits, it can be frustrating for both facilitators and the users to participate in the program, but as shared earlier, Google Team will take these kind of violations VERY SERIOUSLY and while it can hamper the UX for some time, its important for us to go through this activity to prevent any further misuse in the longer run while we remove and blacklist these users from the platform.

Users can expect the progress emails before the end of this week regardless of our results of the lab limits violation.

✔️ *The new Arcade Games & Trivia are going to go LIVE soon!*
We know that all of you are eagerly waiting for the Arcade Games and Trivia to go live. While we cannot share the exact timeline on when its going to go live, but its surely going to happen today itself as promised before the end of the day. Hence, do stay excited and keep an eye out on the Arcade website. 😎
