About the course

Why take AWS SysOps Administrator Certification Training?

AWS renamed its operations-focused Associate certification. The former AWS Certified SysOps Administrator - Associate is now the AWS Certified CloudOps Engineer - Associate, and the current exam is SOA-C03. This course covers the day-to-day skills the exam measures: monitoring and logging, automated remediation, reliability and backups, deployment and provisioning with infrastructure as code, security and compliance, and networking.

You will learn to run a production AWS environment: setting up CloudWatch alarms and dashboards, responding to events with EventBridge and Lambda, patching with Systems Manager, restoring from backups, scaling Auto Scaling groups and diagnosing connectivity problems in a VPC. Each module uses labs that mimic real operational incidents.

The course is live and instructor-led in scheduled batches. It prepares you for the exam, which you book and take yourself with AWS. People who already hold the SysOps Administrator credential remain valid for three years from the date they earned it.

Who should attend

● System and network administrators moving from data centres to AWS
● Cloud support engineers and NOC or operations team members

● No formal eligibility requirement from AWS
● Basic Linux or Windows server administration and networking knowledge
