Through this program, elev8 will deliver cloud computing skills training, developed and maintained by AWS, to organizations and learners in Nigeria and Rwanda.

Many companies have accelerated their digital transformation plans this year; however, innovation and security remain a top challenge and priority. elev8 is working with AWS to help learners and organizations navigate and adapt to the ever-changing landscape and create meaningful change by responding to evolving work requirements by reskilling and upskilling employees.

As cloud technologies continue to help organizations transform their businesses rapidly, employees with the necessary cloud skills are in high demand. According to Global Knowledge, 90% of IT managers have a plan to address the skills gap, and 56% believe the answer is training existing staff. In addition, ESG (Enterprise Strategy Group) research shows that 93% of organizations say supporting AWS Certification improves team recruitment, and 96% agree their decision to certify cloud-focused staff on AWS has improved retention (ESG 2021 report).

Elemi Ani, Global Head of Solutions, Design and Digital Transformation at elev8, commented on working together with AWS, saying, “As the future of work progresses, the cloud has proven to be a vital online technology. When it comes to cloud adoption, infrastructure, and development, the cloud computing market has been on a rapid upward trajectory since the beginning of the pandemic. This has made it critical to bring best practices and training to our partners and clients throughout Africa. With the support of AWS, we will bridge the gap and ensure that we help businesses improve how they operate, store, and access data while maintaining a high level of security”.
