Great place to look would be the 21st century learning standards. When I thought about my 9th graders I had students who could write in paragraphs and create a short essay. Analysis and synthesis were hard. Transition words were also something worked to introduce in 9th grade. Where do you teach at?

Hi Fishes,
I have an experience of 6 years in Production and Application Support. I have worked as middleware administrator as well for Jboss and Weblogic.
But due to the diminishing demands of the role in IT industry , I am planning to switch my career in Devops or AWS which would help me grow.
But I am not sure without any practical knowledge, will I get a job at this many years of experience in a different profile.
Do companies hire for AWS profiles with good packages at beginners level?
