Upgrading from Google Workspace for Education Fundamentals to Google Education Plus

Google’s suite of education apps and services make it simple to deliver online education at a distance, or to support in-person classroom activities that leverage digital tools for engagement.

However, your subscription plan can heavily influence the tools that you have access to; Google Workspace for Education Plus contains a wealth of useful tools that are absent in Google Workspace for Education Fundamentals.

If your institution isn’t using Google Workspace for Education, you could be missing out on key features that'll improve your student's and teacher's access to learning tools and resources. What's more, if you're a government-recognized, accredited institution that provides approved certifications, you could automatically qualify to upgrade to Google Workspace for Education.
