What do the reviews say?

“Hands on learning labs and real time scenarios (the practical stuff) really help you learn the subject. Not just exam prep, but gives a solid foundation of AWS. That’s what actually helped me pass the exam.” – Kenneth S.

“I learned a lot, especially in the lab sessions. Yet I have to say this course is not enough for non-IT beginners (me) to pass the exam. Although you don’t need to know anything about AWS, it’s best that you have some system/network admin experience. Before this course, I barely knew what VPN is and never used SSH. Many terminologies/acronyms threw me off easily. So I spent a lot of time reading around. […]” – Youqing Z.

“I like the fact that it had lots of examples, labs and questions in it. I also found it useful to have regular update provided on its contents. Having said that, there are still bits of information I have found on other resources that are not covered here and I am hoping to utilise other resources here e.g. Q&A, the ACloudGuru website etc to get myself more up-to-date and better prepared for the exams.” – Sam U.
