"How might we craft relevant, meaningful, and inspiring EdTech PD sessions for teachers that address hesitancy and foster confidence in utilizing edtech tools? "
The Google Certified Educator Accelerator Program or otherwise referred to as the GCE Accelerator Program or by the acronym GAP is an educational technology- and needs-based upskilling program initiated by Filipino TeachNovator Joseph Gabriel Educado (#VIA21) that focuses on elevating the Filipino educator's core values and mindsets, transforming pedagogies, and increase proficiency and competence in edtech integration.
Conceptualized around the need of further supporting Filipino educators in navigating their way around and within the online class and hybrid models of teaching and learning delivery in the Philippines, the GCE Accelerator Program further pushes the possibilities of closing the GAP in terms of training delivery and contribute to the personal-professional development and the changing of values and mindsets of teachers - that is, going beyond "compliance", "badge collection", and "apathy" and capitalize on invigorating their dreams, idealism, and passion for education and in transforming the lives of their learners and their communities.

Voucher Assistance can also be granted to trainees who showed and demonstrated promising performance, progress, and attitude throughout the training duration.
One of the perks of being a program alumni is being able to attend virtually (and soon, physically!) awesome Google for Education events and GEG-initiated learning opportunities for continued upskilling and networking!
