Celfocus training to accelerate Cloud adoption

There is no question of “go/no go to Cloud" anymore, adopting cloud solutions is mandatory and it's a priority topic on organization agendas that want to continue competing in a market that is in constant evolution. It's not a surprise that most of the solutions that are now being implemented are aiming to be cloud first or cloud native. This means that gaining specialization in cloud services is nowadays a must to guarantee the success of projects and a competitive differentiator.

The challenge needs to be raised to implement multi domain applications in a multi cloud ecosystem, the complexity is increasing with trends like industry cloud platforms, blockchain, distributed cloud or edge computing. Organizations will continue to adopt cloud services and consume the native services that they provide to accelerate time to value, leveraging on composability to build differentiated digital products and services.

It's critical to work with strong cloud partnerships, prepare the workforce and even the organization culture for the market needs, the key is to continually adapt to clients’ expectations, unlocking cloud native capabilities such as Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI).

In a nutshell cloud computing is a game-changer for businesses, enabling organizations to be more agile, efficient, and innovative in a constantly evolving digital landscape.

How can Celfocus Training help?

Cloud technology training and, by extension, cloud skills have a compelling influence on the rate of cloud adoption. An adequate cloud training strategy can enable organizations to accelerate cloud adoption and achieve their business objectives, as well as overcome concerns related to cloud adoption.

The organizations can benefit from a comprehensive cloud training approach i.e., a program that includes both cloud fundamentals training for a wide range of stakeholders and deep cloud training for key technical teams.

Celfocus training offers foundational training with introductory videos and webinars to help you and your team to learn cloud fundamentals and raise cloud awareness throughout the organization. There’s also intermediate and advanced technical training available for teams that use the cloud, to support them to reach expertise in compelling proficiencies of cloud technologies.

We will continue to launch cloud learning paths aligned with career paths and leverage cloud skills through the cloud learning journey. To learn more about the Cloud training offer, please explore our catalog here or contact us at celfocus.training@celfocus.com.
