“This collaboration between AWS and TBR is vital to building a strong workforce in Tennessee, and many students across the state will benefit from this work.”ĪWS education programs will be offered initially at 12 Tennessee community colleges and 15 Tennessee Colleges of Applied Technology spanning the state.
Emily House, executive director at Tennessee Higher Education Commission. “THEC is proud to support increased access to high quality industry certifications that can not only help students get in-demand jobs, but also aid in their pursuits of higher education credentials,” said Dr. Certifying 5,000 students by 2025 is a short-term target for the ongoing initiative. This collaborative effort between an industry leader and educational institutions is critical because it ensures that students will be trained for actual industry needs and by trained instructors skilled in teaching the latest technical skills that will help learners earn industry certifications. We’re grateful to AWS for this generous support.” “Although AWS is providing much of the resources for this initiative, the program’s graduates will be able to work anywhere cloud computing skills are in demand. “The future is now with cloud computing, and this initiative will enable Tennesseans to learn the skills they need for new careers in this field or to better perform in their existing information technology work,” said TBR Chancellor Flora W. Students can also access self-paced online training courses and labs from AWS. Educators at participating institutions will have access to instructor training and a limited number of AWS Certification exams at no cost as they qualify to become AWS Academy accredited educators. TBR will work with the AWS Academy program to provide the colleges with no-cost, ready-to-teach, cloud computing curricula that prepares students for industry-recognized AWS Certifications and in-demand cloud-related jobs. “Thanks to AWS for providing the resources to our colleges at no cost.” “I’m delighted that AWS - Amazon’s cloud computing business - is partnering with our community and technical colleges to provide this opportunity for Tennesseans – an opportunity to learn cloud computing skills for great careers in the state’s growing tech sector,” Tennessee Governor Bill Lee said. Through this statewide initiative, technical training and education mapped to in-demand skills will be available from participating public community and technical colleges across Tennessee, including Columbia State Community College.
