Sign up for free certification prep with Pluralsight Skills or A Cloud Guru.
Cloud computing is rapidly becoming the default for development across organizations everywhere. Even so, 64% of learners say they are new to cloud computing and looking for basic cloud training, and only 8% say they have significant cloud experience.
That’s quite the gap, and the takeaway is clear: In order to achieve cloud goals, organizations need to be creators of cloud talent.
But too often, cost is a barrier for getting certified, and for learning in general. That’s why, through the end of the year, we’re inviting your team to get #CloudHappy with comprehensive certification prep, plus free access to A Cloud Guru or Pluralsight Skills.
