Candidates must demonstrate knowledge of YouTube ad formats (such as skippable in-stream, bumper, and in-feed ads), audience targeting options (including affinity, in-market, and Customer Match), and measurement solutions like Brand Lift and reach/frequency reporting . The exam requires a score of 80% or higher within a 75-minute time limit, with a one-day waiting period for retakes, and the certification remains valid for one year before renewal . This certification counts toward the Google Partners program requirements .
