The Capacita+ event held on September 25, 2026 was part of Google Cloud Summit Brazil and was streamed live on YouTube. For people who missed the session or want to keep learning afterward, the safest route is to use the ongoing resources maintained by Google Cloud itself: the Google Skills catalog, Portuguese-language AI training, and the Gemini Enterprise Agent Ready program, known as GEAR. Google's September 24 announcement confirms the Capacita+ livestream and the expansion of these training channels, but it does not provide a dedicated permanent replay page for the 2026 edition.
What remains available after Capacita+
In the Google Cloud Summit Brazil 2026 announcement, Google says it expanded its training goal in the country to 3 million people over the coming years. To support that expansion, the company cites advanced training, free Portuguese-language courses on YouTube, certifications and learning resources in Google Skills, and support for Google Developer Groups. The September 25 Capacita+ event appears as one part of this broader program, rather than the only gateway to the material.
This changes how learners should look for content after the event. Instead of relying only on the link used for the live broadcast, it is more useful to follow resources that remain organized by topic and skill level. Google Skills brings together courses, documents, videos, hands-on labs, and assessments. Google Cloud's training page says the catalog includes more than 3,000 learning resources and highlights paths focused on generative AI and agents.
How to access AI learning materials after the event
1. Start with Google Skills
The official Google Cloud training page directs learners to Google Skills, the platform used for on-demand courses and labs. There, you can review generative AI fundamentals, follow structured learning programs, and move into hands-on activities. For anyone who treated Capacita+ as an introduction, this is the most structured route for continuing to learn.
A relevant starting point is the Generative AI Leader learning program. The certification with the same name is intended for people in any job role, with or without hands-on technical experience, and covers generative AI fundamentals, Google Cloud generative AI offerings, techniques to improve model output, and business strategies for successful generative AI solutions. The official page also links to the learning program and study guide.
2. Use GEAR to go deeper into AI agents
For learners who want to move beyond general concepts and practice building agents, GEAR offers a more technical continuation. Google describes Gemini Enterprise Agent Ready as a program for learning how to build, deploy, and scale enterprise-grade AI agents. Joining is free, and the program provides 35 learning credits per month in Google Skills for eligible labs and other learning resources.
GEAR content is organized into stages that include an introduction to agents, agent development, production deployment, and enterprise scaling. This path is especially useful for people who saw Gemini examples during Capacita+ and want to turn a demonstration into recurring practice through labs and a longer learning sequence.
3. Use free Portuguese-language courses and official resources
The Summit 2026 announcement also mentions free courses in Portuguese on YouTube as part of Google's training strategy. In addition, the Google Cloud training area maintains dedicated AI and machine learning pages with courses, labs, documentation, and video series. These resources can complement Google Skills when the goal is to quickly revisit a concept or look up a specific topic.
It is important to distinguish three things: the event broadcast, which happens on a specific date; learning programs, which are organized for ongoing study; and certification, which involves a formal assessment and separate rules. Watching Capacita+ does not automatically grant a certification, and following a learning path does not mean the certification exam is included at no cost.
Is the Capacita+ 2026 replay guaranteed?
The September 24 official announcement says the September 25 training would be livestreamed on YouTube, but that text does not state that the recording would remain available after the event or provide a permanent replay URL. It is therefore not safe to treat the full recording as guaranteed based on that announcement alone.
There is a precedent for an earlier Capacita+ edition remaining published on the Google Cloud LATAM YouTube channel: the December 6, 2025 stream is still accessible, and its description directs viewers to a learning path. That precedent shows that YouTube can serve as a repository for past editions, but it does not replace confirmation that the specific September 2026 recording is available.
Which route should you choose after Capacita+?
| Goal | Recommended resource | What to expect |
|---|---|---|
| Review generative AI fundamentals | Google Skills and the Generative AI Leader path | On-demand courses, study resources, and structured preparation |
| Practice building agents | GEAR | Agent learning paths and 35 monthly learning credits for eligible Google Skills resources |
| Consume Portuguese-language content | Official Google Cloud courses and videos | Introductory and complementary video content |
| Pursue a formal credential | Google Cloud certifications | A separate exam with requirements and conditions independent of the event |
Step by step: how to keep learning
- Open the official Google Cloud training page and sign in to Google Skills with your account.
- Choose a learning path that matches your goal. For fundamentals and business-level understanding, consider Generative AI Leader. For agents, consider GEAR.
- Use on-demand courses to review concepts and, where available in your access, move on to hands-on labs.
- If you join GEAR, keep track of the monthly credits and prioritize labs that match your current level.
- Use official videos and documentation as complementary material, without confusing study resources with a completed certification.
- If your goal is a certification, review the specific exam page before paying, scheduling, or assuming that a voucher is available to your profile.
What about the 10,000 vouchers announced by Google Cloud?
In the same Summit Brazil announcement, Google Cloud said it was offering 10,000 free certification vouchers to developers in Brazil, citing Associate Cloud Engineer and Generative AI Leader among the certifications covered. However, that passage does not provide all distribution criteria, deadlines, or the application process. Anyone planning to use a voucher should therefore consult the campaign-specific page or communication before treating the benefit as guaranteed.
In summary
The end of the September Capacita+ event does not end access to Google Cloud AI learning. The post-event path is to continue through Google Skills, use GEAR when the focus is AI agents, and complement the learning with official Portuguese-language courses and videos. What should not be assumed is that the full 2026 event recording or a certification voucher is automatically available to every participant. Those two points require confirmation in the corresponding specific communication.
