Course overview
What is cloud computing?
Simply put, cloud computing is the delivery of computing services – including servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics and intelligence – over the Internet (“the cloud”) to offer faster innovation, flexible resources and economies of scale. Typically, a business only pays for cloud services they use, helping lower their operating costs, run their infrastructure more efficiently and scale as their business needs change. Source: Microsoft
3 reasons you should learn cloud computing
1. There is an increasing demand for Cloud Computing professionals
With everything going digital, organisations are desperate for IT professionals who have training in cloud computing. The worldwide public cloud services market is projected to grow rapidly as more software (e.g. apps) and services are expected to make the move online or into the cloud in other words.
2. High Earning Potential
If you are looking for a career with high earning potential, cloud computing is where it’s at. With the whole world becoming more digital each year, finding people who understand the tech landscape are highly sought after.
3. Improved job prospects in all industries
No matter which industry you work in, a background in cloud computing opens so many doors.
Holding a certification in cloud computing shows that you are skilled to help any organisation or company reduce risks and costs to implement projects on different cloud platforms. Which organisation in the world would not want that? Source: Torrens

Delivery
All courses are online and self-paced, meaning you do it in your own home, in your own time, at your own pace and best of all… anywhere in the world, providing you have access to a laptop, PC or desktop computer, and an internet connection. Each lesson is pre-recorded allowing you to pause, fast-forward, skip sections, or go back to another lesson if you need to. The lessons are multi-media based, which means video and audio are used to teach the lessons. Your tutor will use PowerPoint slides, illustrations, diagrams and give demonstrations to teach each class. Most lessons are also interactive, prompting the learner to participate. This might involve answering on-screen questions.
