We’re both experienced AWS professionals and have witnessed firsthand how cloud technologies can accelerate mission-critical initiatives and solve complex challenges in regulated industries. AWS Certifications have been an important part of our respective career progression and we’re passionate about sharing our certification experiences to help others. This blog outlines our AWS Certification learning journeys, the impact on our careers, and our best practices to prepare for an AWS Certification exam.

In July, we released 52 digital training products on AWS Skill Builder, including AWS Industry Quest: Healthcare, AWS Cloud Quest: Networking, 19 AWS Builder Labs, and new exam prep for AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner and AWS Certified DevOps Engineer – Professional. For c-suite executives, explore courses to help you build knowledge of the capabilities of cloud. We also have two new trainings exclusive to AWS Partners in sales roles.

As your organization starts to modernize its mainframe workloads, it’s important that the workforce has skills that are diverse and complementary, such as mainframe, mainframe modernization, and cloud skills. In order to help our customers and partners build skills to support their mainframe modernization with AWS journeys, we have launched 10 self-paced courses.

In March 2023, AWS Training and Certification released 27 digital products including 14 AWS Builder Labs, an AWS Jam Journey (analytics), two courses for AWS Partners, three courses for c-suite leaders, and a classroom course on AWS security best practices.
