Google Inc ATC (Authorised Training Center) in India?

Posted by manojmisra on April 30, 2007


I found this interesting advertisement in a leading Indian newspaper daily (today morning, on my flight from Delhi to Mumbai) – Google Inc ATC announcement (see attached image) for SKETCHUP training in Indian.

Few Questions:

1. Is Google SKETCHUP so complex to operate that there is training required?

2. Does Google Inc has a authorised training center for SKETCHUP PRO V6 training anywhere else in world?

If anyone has any idea about this google ATC, please drop in your comments and views!

    Looks pretty suspect to me. The website listed in the ad is empty – not a good sign.

    Old wine in new bottle, this same as that of the 3D Home Architect software with little new features added to it. May require very basic training.

    It is a pretty easy software to use. I am sure that this advertisement is a hoax.

    Hi Manoj..

    Google Demands Quality. In the website i have seen some Spelling Mistakes in the core Product name..

    The Product name was MisSpelt.

    It looks like an Amateur Site by some weird pro’s to mint money.

    Also I found in the crack Sites that this has some licence issues. And i am 200% sure that this institute as like many in Hyderabad uses Pirated Software..

    Also found some Training centres in Canada for this software.. but few of the links are not working..

    I am suspicious about this…

    I taught lots of Organisation/Institute like HUDCO, DMRC, SPA, IIT-Roorkee, Survey of India and lots of Professional Architects.

    Why we need training? It is because SketchUp is a Professional software. It is well proven for its strength and use in profession like Architecture, L. Architecture, Urban Design, Urban Planning etc.
    The training is not only focussed on its learning but also on its application.

    General myth is that this is easy to operate software but when we ask any professional that can you able to do the entire project on this software then answer is ‘NO’.

    Unless untill you know the software correctly then only one can use it professionally.

    Yes, this software is highly professional and far beyond then ‘3D HOME’.

    By profession I am an Architect and a Town Planner. i have used this software in my profession as well and found it very practical.

    In order to use this software professionally one should be trained.

    And we conduct Google Certified course.

    About our website, we apologize for spelling mistake. We’ll try to rectify this. Thank you for your comments.

    But, I am confident that one who is fully aware of this software can understand its strength and use in his profession at great extent.

    Do let me know if you have any more queries regarding this.

    Kindly believe us that we are appointed as Google Authorised Trainer.
