Real stories, real impact

“One of the most rewarding milestones in my journey of working in digital was completing the AWS Cloud Practitioner qualification under the Get Cloud Certified programme. This deepened my understanding of cloud computing principles and gave me the confidence to explore more advanced cloud technologies and their practical applications in the workplace.”

        Hi Martin, I work at Red Hat and I strongly recommend learning the basics for using Hashicorp solution.

        Pity I cannot participate to this training initiative.

        Wish you and your team mates a successful experience.

        Best

    Hi, I don't see the courses from RedHat in the list of courses? They were the ones I was most interested in.
