The Skill Elevation Club of the Department of Computer Science & Applications of S.A College of Arts & Science organized a 5 days FDP on “CLOUD PRACTITIONER” in association with ICT Academy from 19-06-2023 to 23-06-2023.

Mrs.Chitra, an experienced AWS-certified professional was invited as a resource person to deliver lectures, conduct hands-on exercises, and provide guidance during the FDP.

The Faculty Development Programme on AWS Cloud Practitioner was organized with the objective of equipping faculty members with the knowledge and skills required to teach and mentor students in the field of cloud computing using Amazon Web Services (AWS). The programme aimed to provide an overview of the AWS Cloud Practitioner certification exam, familiarize faculty with AWS services and concepts, and enable them to effectively incorporate cloud computing into their curriculum.

The FDP curriculum encompassed the following key areas:

• Introduction to AWS Cloud Computing
• AWS Global Infrastructure and Service Models
• AWS Core Services: Compute, Storage, and Database
• Networking and Security in AWS
• AWS Management and Monitoring Tools
• AWS Security Best Practices
• AWS Cost Optimization and Billing
• AWS Cloud Practitioner Certification Overview
• Hands-on Labs and Practical Exercises

To provide practical exposure, hands-on labs were conducted where faculty members got the opportunity to work on the AWS console, create and manage AWS resources, and perform tasks related to compute, storage, and networking. The resource persons provided step-by-step guidance and addressed queries during the lab sessions.

To assess the participants’ progress and prepare them for the AWS Cloud Practitioner certification exam, practice tests were conducted at regular intervals. These tests evaluated their understanding of AWS concepts, services, and best practices.

The FDP helped participants develop a strong foundation in cloud computing and AWS services. They gained in-depth knowledge of core AWS services, infrastructure, security, and cost optimization techniques. Participants also acquired practical skills through hands-on labs, enabling them to leverage AWS effectively.
