Student Spotlight
Meet Claire.
“Through AWS Educate, I deepened my knowledge about AWS services, tested my skills, and completed five Cloud Career Pathways. For a learning milestone, I took on the challenge of getting AWS Certified. AWS Educate helped prepare me for the exam, and now I am a Certified Cloud Practitioner.”
Chung Yik Lok, “Claire”, PhD Candidate in Cell and Molecular Biology, the Chinese University of Hong Kong

Meet Jeremy.
“Through AWS Educate, I learned the fundamentals of solutions architecture, DevOps, machine learning, data integration, and more—just enough to acquire a strategic understanding of cloud services […] and apply the knowledge to real projects. The AWS Educate pathways were concise, contained plenty of useful links, and tested my knowledge through a mix of multiple choice and case study questions."
Jeremy Wang, Master of Mechanical and Mechatronics engineering student, the University of Waterloo

Meet Tina.
“I learned about certain AWS services in the context of software development and machine learning, which is something I have not had a chance to do so in my regular courses. The Pathways are structured so I can follow along at my own pace. This has been incredibly helpful with my full-time job and part-time graduate school.”
Tina Hang, Master of Software Engineering student, the Pennsylvania State University

Meet Collin.
“AWS Educate […] shows you the path towards a career […]. It gives you more contextual knowledge about the career rather than simply dumping a bunch of facts and info sheets on you. Mentioning […] that I was familiar with AWS definitely helped me land an internship with REAN Cloud, a Premier Consulting Partner with AWS.”
Collin Arnet, aspiring Data Scientist, Northern Virginia Community College

Meet Kayden.
“AWS Educate was the inspiration that lead me to begin developing an LLC in e-commerce […]. I discovered how simple it was [to learn] how the various cloud platforms worked and would now like to begin using these types of capabilities to help customers source items, create a brand, and generate some revenue along the way."
