First AWS re/Start Graduates Celebrate Success

Huge congratulations to our first AWS re/Start Graduates who are now qualified and ready to begin their cloud careers!

We were thrilled to celebrate the hard work and success of our learners with a graduation ceremony in the Lord Mayor’s Parlour in City Hall. The Graduation Celebration was attended by Councillor Matthew Green, as well as representatives from Amazon Web Services and local employers.

This programme has been run in collaboration with Amazon Web Services to equip local people, particularly those who are unemployed or from underrepresented groups, with highly sought-after skills in cloud computing.

Over the twelve-week programme, learners are taught fundamental and transferable cloud computing skills including scripting, automation, programming languages focused on Python and knowledge of security fundamentals.

We are also working with Westminster Employment Service who are providing coaching in various soft skills such as writing a CV, interview technique, time management, effective collaboration and connecting learners to potential employers.

After the success of this first programme we are now recruiting for our second programme, which will begin in February. Applications are open until 31 January. Apply for AWS re/Start online now.
