PHILADELPHIA, PA — LearnQuest has announced a collaboration with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to broaden the reach of AWS Cloud Institute, a program designed to provide individuals and businesses with critical cloud skills. This initiative offers a fast track to becoming job-ready cloud professionals in as little as nine months.
“At AWS, we’re thrilled to team up with LearnQuest to further expand the reach and impact of AWS Cloud Institute,” said Kevin Kelly, Director of AWS Cloud Institute. “By combining our comprehensive cloud curriculum with LearnQuest’s experience in supporting cloud-interested learners, we plan on empowering thousands of individuals and businesses to embrace cloud computing, drive innovation, and achieve meaningful results in today’s digital economy.”
The AWS Cloud Institute bridges the skills gap in the rapidly growing cloud computing sector. The program includes hands-on labs, capstone projects, and preparation for two industry-recognized AWS certifications. Both businesses and individuals can benefit from its tailored approach.
Giving Businesses Tools to Stay Competitive
For organizations, the AWS Cloud Institute provides a cost-effective way to reskill employees and future-proof their workforce. Companies can upskill non-technical staff or traditional IT professionals, reducing hiring costs and onboarding time by developing in-house talent. Flexible scheduling ensures training doesn’t disrupt daily operations, with four program start dates per year aligning education with business needs.
Creating Pathways for Individual Learners
The program also welcomes individuals eager to enter the cloud computing field, offering a beginner-friendly curriculum that builds from AWS fundamentals to real-world applications. Participants complete over 150 interactive labs, two capstone projects, and prepare for highly sought-after AWS certifications. With part-time and full-time options, learners can fit training into their own schedules for $5,670, payable in monthly installments.
“AWS Cloud Institute takes learners from the fundamentals of cloud technology to real-world applications,” said Dimitri Schneiberg, Managing Director at LearnQuest. “By providing hands-on labs, capstone projects, and preparation for two industry-recognized AWS certifications, AWS Cloud Institute is enabling individuals to launch new careers in cloud computing. At the same time, we’re helping organizations future-proof their workforces by reskilling front-line staff, non-technical employees, and traditional IT professionals.”
With this partnership, AWS and LearnQuest aim to empower businesses and individuals to thrive in the digital economy by bridging the gap between cloud skills demand and available talent.
