The AWS Solutions Architect Professional certification builds on the core concepts and services of AWS as established in the AWS Solutions Architect Associate certificaiton to enable one to build robust, secure and scalable cloud solutions that take advantage of a cloud native architecture. Our training couses focuses on the  objectives of the AWS Professional architect certification. It teaches attendess what they need to know to pass the exam and is intended for those who want to get certified. After attending this course one will be able to sit the certificaiton exam and build cloud native solutions on AWS cloud.
