I was going in and finalizing my Google AdWords certifications and attempting to finish my last exam, finally completed it and I was jumping for joy when all of a sudden I receive a confirmation from Google that my certification expired over 46 years ago, specifically on December 31, 1969.

Here is a screen shot of the notification that I received when I go in and view my partner profile and check my status of my AdWords certification:

It reads, “Congratulations! You’re AdWords certified. Your certification is valid through Dec 31, 1969.”

When I hit up @adwords on Twitter they were aware of the problem and asked me to provide more details. Let’s just sit back and see what happens.
