You need a plan with
dates on it, not another
open-ended course.
Between roles is a bad time to be guessing. It is a good time to be building something you can point at, if you know exactly what you are building and how long it takes.
You have the one thing
employed candidates do not.
Everyone else doing this is fitting it around a job, three evenings a week, tired. You have whole days.
That is not a consolation. It is a genuine advantage, and it is the reason people in your position often move faster than the people who are comfortable.
THE REAL PROBLEM IS THE CLOCK
The problem is not whether you can do it.
It is how long you have to prove it.
You are not short on capability and you are not short on motivation. What you are short on is time, which makes open-ended study the one thing you cannot afford.
Most training is sold as though the clock does not exist. Yours does, and it should shape what you pick.
What you need is a sequence with dates on it, and a way to start this
week rather than next quarter.
THE SEQUENCE
Three steps, and the first one
takes about a minute.
01
Step one
Join the community.
Nineteen dollars. Intro to Cloud and IT, a quick-
start on the job search, and a room of people
doing the same thing. You can start today.
02
Step two
Come to the next
masterclass.
Live, every other Thursday, 7pm Eastern. Bring
what you are stuck on and see how the
instructors actually teach before you commit to
anything larger.
03
Step three
Have a proper
conversation, when it is the right time.
If the full programme makes sense for your
situation, someone will talk it through with you
honestly, including whether the timing works.
Nobody is going to pitch you in week one.
WHAT YOU BUILD WHILE YOU WAIT
Every interview will ask
what you did with the time.
Project work.
Things you build and keep, that you can walk someone through line by
line. Three inside the community, the full ten in the main training.
Interview training.
What the screen is actually filtering for, and how to answer when you do
not know something. The part almost nobody teaches.
Six months of “I was studying” is a weak answer. Six months of work you can demonstrate is a completely different conversation.
WHO TEACHES IT
Nearly a decade, and five hundred people through it.
CloudElite is an AWS Advanced Partner and has been running for close to ten years. More than five hundred professionals have been certified through it across the US and UK, and the people teaching are working cloud engineers rather than career trainers.
Students historically arrived by word of mouth, because graduates got hired and told their friends.

WHERE TO START
Nineteen dollars,
and you can start
today.
No application, no waiting for a cohort, no call before you are allowed in. You join and you begin.
Cancel whenever you want. If it is not right, you will know within a week and it will have cost you nineteen dollars to find out.
