Hands-On Google Drive Project for Beginners

Build real-world skills by organizing files, creating Google Docs and Sheets, and working like an executive assistant in this practical Google Drive project.

Why This Hands-On Google Drive Project Matters

This hands-on Google Drive project is designed for students, beginners, and aspiring virtual assistants who want practical experience using Google Drive, Google Docs, and Google Sheets in a real business context.

Instead of learning Google Drive in isolation, students work on a simulated role as an Executive Assistant for Otanwa Nigeria PLC, completing tasks that mirror what companies actually expect in the workplace.
