Become a Solutions Architect and confidently pass the SAA-C02 certification
Pass the Certification and become a Solutions Architect
The AWS Certified Solutions Architect is one of the most valuable and in-demand cloud certifications available. It covers all of the core AWS services and is a fantastic entry point into the most popular public cloud platform in the world today.
Getting certified can help improve your confidence and get you interviews, but it’s the skills gained along the way which matter long term. With this course, you’ll learn everything you need to pass the SAA-C02 exam confidently, but also gain the real-world skills you need to perform well in an interview and function as a mid-level AWS Solutions Architect.
DESIGNED FROM SCRATCH FOR SAA-C02
I’ve designed the course for the new version of the AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate (SAA-C02) certification released on March 23rd, 2020. Rather than updating existing content, I’ve created a course which directly aligns with the new structure, products, services and architectures contained in the SAA-C02 exam. In addition to SAA-C02, the course provides everything you need for the older SAA-C01 exam too. My commitment to you is this course is up to date when you enrol, and I’ll keep it that way for a single lifetime enrolment fee. This course is kept constantly up to date (weekly), see below for the most recent update status.

Whether we’re talking about serverless applications, data migration and connecting AWS to on-premises environments using a Site-to-Site VPN - the things you learn will be useful in the real world.
**RESPECTS YOUR TIME:**I promise to respect your time. Everything in the course is either relevant to the exam, or will provide the surrounding knowledge which will help you pass with confidence; while also gaining the practical experience needed to get access to exciting job opportunities.

Each section includes a quiz helping you retain knowledge, and at the end of the course, we’ve designed a full practice exam which mirrors real-world conditions.
