Unlocking Savings in Cybersecurity: Google’s New Certification and CompTIA Security+ Discount
If you’re aspiring to enter the world of cybersecurity, you’ll want to hear about an exciting opportunity from Google. The Google Cybersecurity Certification, available on Coursera, now offers a 30% discount on the CompTIA Security+ exam upon completing the certification program. This development could be a game-changer for anyone looking to break into this industry!
Having discovered this course while studying for my CCNA, I received an email notification from Coursera announcing its launch. Intrigued by the prospect of enhancing my skills, I decided to enroll and take advantage of the discount on the Security+ exam.
Upon completing the Google Cybersecurity Certification, participants receive a voucher that grants them a 30% discount on the Security+ exam fee. For those of us living in countries with higher exam costs—such as my experience in a developing nation in Southeast Asia—such savings can make a significant difference.
Many aspiring professionals often find themselves navigating options like auditing courses, applying for financial aid, or patiently waiting for discounts to make their certifications more affordable. This update could be particularly beneficial for anyone in a similar position, eager to save money while pursuing a cybersecurity career.

Additional Resources
I also want to clarify a point regarding free certification programs. Although the Google course is not included, it has come to my attention that The American Dream Academy offers the IBM Cybersecurity Certification along with several other completely free certification opportunities. If you’re in the US, this program might provide valuable resources for your career advancement. Take a look here: The American Dream Academy.
I hope this information proves beneficial as you embark on your cybersecurity journey!
