About this course
This AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner exam prep course is for beginners, career changers and non-technical professionals who want a recognised first cloud certification. It follows the four CLF-C02 exam domains: cloud concepts, security and compliance, cloud technology and services, and billing, pricing and support. You will learn the AWS global infrastructure, the shared responsibility model, IAM, and the core compute, storage, database and networking services, then practise choosing between purchase options, cost tools and support plans. Short AWS CLI exercises make the services concrete, and the final lesson covers exam technique, commonly confused services and worked practice questions. No prior cloud experience is needed; basic comfort with computers and the internet is enough, and a free AWS account is helpful. Independent study material, not affiliated with or endorsed by Amazon Web Services (AWS).
