More Google Specifics here.
There are 3 requirements that you will need to complete by January 31, 2020 to ensure your recertification. Please note that this year’s requirements slightly differ from previous years.

1. Report at least 12 training sessions from 2019 in Activity App (gweb-edu-activity-app.appspot.com)◦ There is now a “bulk upload” option to easily upload all your training sessions at once via Google Sheets (vs previously, you were only able to log them one by one)2. Pass the short recertification product update exam http://bit.ly/2RgH4zu (with at least a score of 70%)◦ All of the answers are in this study guide: What’s New from Google for Education (http://bit.ly/2Rfo0l1)3. Sign up for a Workbench account (edu.workbencheducation.com) using your Activity App email address◦ Our private Trainers resource database is now on this platform, which houses thousands of useful resources and lessons submitted by the community
*Your voices and opinions are very important to us, so based on the recent concerns on our recertification announcement, we decided to make this year’s recertification process easier on you by removing the requirement of having valid L1 and L2 certificates (of course it is still highly encouraged)!

Please visit the comprehensive FAQ doc (https://bit.ly/33K7jAH) for more details on each of the 3 requirements. If you still have further questions, please contact the recertification alias listed in the doc.
