AWS Guild Incubator

Leverage gamified team learning to build practical use cases that solve real business challenges

Program overview

AWS Guild Incubator is a 4-month engagement during which we help you run a 12-week team-based training competition that results in real business solutions in a concentrated topic area—like AI, Migration, Amazon Connect, Security, and more. The Incubator format helps make building technical capabilities exciting, as teams compete to learn new skills and use them to generate a winning Innovation Idea.

Benefits

    Participants gain hands-on experience with cloud and AI technologies through real-world challenges, moving beyond theory to practical application.

    Teams develop innovation ideas that address actual business needs, creating a ready-to-use backlog of solutions your organization can implement.

    The team-based competition format brings together people from different skill sets and roles, building connections and breaking down silos.

    Focus on a concentrated topic area relevant to your teams, so learning is targeted, practical, and immediately applicable.

    The gamified format motivates participants to complete certifications and engage with AWS Skill Builder training modules, driving measurable growth in your organization's cloud credentials.
