4How each module is taught

Every module follows the same practical, real-console lens, so you always know what to expect in class.

1

Concept Walkthrough

Trainer explains the concept with a real infrastructure scenario first, then the AWS service or workflow.

2

Live Along

You configure the same service, right alongside the trainer, directly in the AWS console.

3

Hands-on Exercise

An independent task applying the concept to a new deployment scenario.

4

Doubt Clearing

One-on-one help for anyone stuck, before the class moves to the next module.

5

Weekly Assessment

A short practical AWS console test every week so gaps are caught early, not at the end.

5Projects & portfolio

Four practical, portfolio-ready deployment projects across the full syllabus — the kind of work you'll show in interviews.

  • Project 1. Deploy and secure an EC2 web server with custom security groups
  • Project 2. Host a static website on S3 with versioning and lifecycle rules
  • Project 3. Design a secure VPC with public/private subnets and IAM roles
  • Project 4. Capstone: full 3-tier web application deployed on AWS with monitoring

6Assessment & certification

Weekly practical assessments covering IAM, EC2, S3 and basic architecture workflows, with instructor review and feedback.

Final practical exam across all three phases, plus the capstone project used as your demonstrable, portfolio-ready proof of skill.

Certificate of completion, plus resume and portfolio support through our 100% Placement Assist program.

7Quick answers

Do I need any prior IT or coding experience?

No prior experience is needed — every concept, from cloud basics to EC2, S3 and IAM, is taught from the ground up.

Will I need to pay for AWS during the course?

Most labs are designed to stay within the AWS Free Tier, and Module 7 teaches budgeting and cost alerts so you never get an unexpected bill.

Do I need my own laptop for the labs?

Any laptop with a browser and internet connection works, since AWS is managed entirely through the console; institute lab computers are also available in class.

Will I work on real deployments, or is it mostly theory?

You'll work directly in the AWS console and CLI from week one. Every module includes hands-on practice, ending in a full web application deployment capstone.

Are classes online, offline, or both?

Both. Offline batches run at our Alpha-1, Greater Noida campus; online live batches follow the same curriculum with the same trainers. Morning, evening and weekend timings are available.

What can I do after completing this course?

You'll be ready for cloud support associate, junior cloud/infrastructure engineer and AWS administrator roles at startups and agencies, with a client-ready portfolio, and can progress into advanced AWS Solutions Architect or DevOps tracks with the same placement support.
