Cloud Associate/AWS/Azure Cloud

Cloud also known as Cloud computing is the on-demand delivery of IT services and resources over the internet with pay-as-you-go pricing. Instead of buying, owning, and maintaining physical hardware, users can access technology services such as servers, desktops, and storage from cloud providers such as  Amazon AWS and Microsoft Azure.  This course introduces learners to the two most used cloud technologies to date, Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure cloud platforms.  The course will be split into two sections. Section one will focus on AWS and prepares the learner to sit for the AWS Solutions Architect Associate Certification (SAA-C02) exam. AWS Certified Solutions Architect is among the most valuable and sought-after cloud computing certifications in the world. Section two will focus on Microsoft Azure and will prepare the learner to sit for the Azure Fundamental Certification (AZ-900) exam Please note:  students will most benefit from this course if they already possess the CompTIA A+ certification or have equivalent knowledge of basic computers functions.  If you do not possess the CompTIA A+ certification you can enroll in our Google IT Support Professional Certificate program.  Included in the cost of tuition are all books, supplies and the cost of one exam, either SAA-CO2 or AZ-900.  (180 hours) $2800.
