Testimonials

The security aspect of the cloud and its architecture allowed me to understand what services are provided and how it can be retrieved.

The programme was well-structured and covered the fundamentals of AWS Cloud in appropriate depth for beginners.

The facilitator's ability to highlight what we need to know, especially in a public service context, and to go beyond the programme material where relevant was useful.
