To become a Google AdWords professional the person must manage an AdWords account for 90 days and reach a level of at least $1,000 within the 90 days.

Google AdWords has become a popular form of advertising and the businesses and individuals that need assistance setting up their ad in AdWords is growing.

If the exam is failed it can be taken twice a month until passed; however, the $50 fee will occur each time the test is taken.

When signing in to take the exam the person trying to become the Google AdWords Professional should be ready to take it right then. The test is timed (1 hr & 30 min.) and there are not any pauses that can be taken for about 100 questions.
