I would highly recommend Stephane Mareck for the course and Jon Boso for the practice exams. They are both on Udemy and should be around $10.
For the hands on labs and additional practice you can use Whizlabs.

Hi can you give any advice on getting more hands on AWS experience. I'm training myself watching video but don't have any real project cloud experience I got layoff with 1 AWS cert

I used acloud guru and one of the official guide books. Exam collection also has a lot of practise exams which helped a lot. I would definitely recommend all of those + doing some hands on work using amazon free tier account

Thanks for the response. Any timeline advice? I check the udemy course and it's about 24 hours long... Any recommendation on the approach?

People say that the culture there is quite political and bitter but I’ll learn a heck lot and get a new opening on my resume. Salary is the same. The other option is to take a consulting job that pays me 50k more but do the same work! Thoughts? Thanks!

I feel like every company lies about “working your way up.” You’re never allowed to blatantly say that you don’t like your position and you’d like to transition to HR or Finance. It’s almost as if once you get in claims, you’re stuck.

If you’re a manager and you see an employee that wants to branch out into a different department, why would you keep them boxed in for 2+ years?

Are there some background mechanics that I’m missing?

Interesting. Let’s see if the uptick In cases continues to drive an uptick in hospitalizations and then in fatalities. Depends on how many of the cases are incidental or in very young people not prone to severe cases. But either way, look at the hospital capacity utilization figures! This is the untold story. Were we bending the curve to avoid unnecessary deaths due to overcrowded hospitals, or were we bending the curve to buy time for treatments and vaccine, or just to slow fatalities?
