Credits for lab

[ish1]

Hi, I am currently learning Google cloud data analytics. To complete the module 1, I need to complete the lab session. Is it free to use lab session with in the time constraint given or I want to spend credit for the lab session? I'm not subscription member.

Hello @ish1  ,Welcome on Google Cloud Community.

Each course or lab have field which indicate wether participation is free or not. As you can see on my screenshot, course " Introduction to Data Analytics on Google Cloud" is free of charge. It means that you are not forced to use credits for that. 

Same thing for SOAR course

If you have lab which require credits, you will see this by looking at "note" icon.

Thank you so much for your detailed explanation @DamianS !

But for me it shows  2 credits.

If I purchase monthly subscription will I get credit as well as completion badge after completing each module or is there any other way to get credits and earn badge.

I can give you some credits 🙂 Unfortunately have no idea, how it is if you have subscription because I don't have it 😄 

Just provide  qwiklabs profile and amount of credits you need 🙂

I don't have any subscription.

If possible can you share 40 credits to complete my GCP Data analytics.
