Hi all,

I am after some advice in regards to online training.

A change in work circumstances means I should ideally brush up on some of my IT skills. The last bit of leaning I did was back in 2005, my degree.

I'm keen to get get in to the Azure/ AWS space and want to do get some certification.

So far I have come across CBT Nuggets, Udemy, Pluralsight and Acilearning.

I would be keen to hear peoples experiences in the above, or any other recommendations.

Udemy and MIcrosoft Learn. Never pay full price for udemy, stick in wishlist / basket and wait a week for them to email you.

aCloudGuru / PluralSight aren't bad either.

For all certs, get on the right subreddit and check recommends there.

IT Skills and Azure / AWS are really different things.
What specifically do you need to learn and to what depth?

Tbh, I want to an understanding cloud offerings. In my current role everything lives on prem and I feel rather de-skilled.

I am in the market for a new role and would like to venture in to the Azure/ AWS space, I know I dont have the relevant work experience, but I am hoping some certifications will help my cause.
