And in true Google style I expect them to slowly ignore it and then drop the program, leaving anyone who invested in it high and dry.

Why do you say that? Someone who gets a job this way will probably be happy even if the course they took is later dropped.

Unless they've figured out a way to attach a DRM policy to the knowledge you learn from taking a course, I don't think it's possible for them to leave anyone high and dry.

Some certs must be regularly renewed, e.g. ScrumMaster. If it’s de-supported then the certs evaporate.
