Labs

We believe in giving you opportunities to apply what you have been learning and create safe environments for you in the form of Labs. The labs for your AWS course will be delivered through AWS Builder labs. Please be aware that in order to access your materials and Labs it is important that your device and network should not restrict access to AWS or Vitalsource content.

Pre requisites

The recommended experience prior to taking this exam is at least 1 year of hands-on experience designing cloud solutions that use AWS services. However, candidates with 1-3 years of IT experience have been able to prepare for and earn this certification as a starting point on their AWS Cloud learning and certification journey.

Candidates who do not have any IT work experience would benefit from first earning the AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner to get foundational knowledge of AWS Cloud before attempting the AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate.
