Hello everyone!
I’m currently a PMO project manager, but would like to PM Cloud-based software projects. Any suggestions on credits or certifications to help build my Cloud knowledge?

Thank you in advance 🙂

Hey there! I think that the AWS Cloud Practitioner exam is a great intro to cloud and can get you in the door for managing cloud projects.

Here is a great course by Stephane Maarek you can take on your own time: https://www.udemy.com/course/aws-certified-cloud-practitioner-new/

The exam is very doable if you take the course. Having AWS knowledge is a valuable skillset that will help you gain the confidence and relevant knowledge to land the job.

Let me know if you have any other questions and I’d be happy to help :)

You will be left with no choice other than leaving TCS.
