How did I become a facilitator ?

The GDSC Lead of our University asked all core team members about their interest, and then I was asked to fill a google form where I had to showcase my skills and why I wanted to become a google cloud facilitator.
On September 15, I got a mail where I got a mail regarding my selection in the program and the next steps.
