AWS JAM Day will be featured on the final, 4th day of this course, as a gamified event where you will be split into teams to compete in a series of best practice challenges based on concepts covered in the course. In addition to the hands-on labs of the ILT courses, an additional day of curated and instructor-facilitated challenges allows learners to use AWS Jam to address real-world scenarios, representing common operational and troubleshooting tasks relevant for your job role. You will be able to apply your knowledge in a safe and real AWS environment and score points if you solve the challenge correctly.
The aim of an AWS Jam is to develop, improve, and validate your skills in the AWS cloud and get ready to use your practical skills when you are back on your daily job.

Voice of the Instructor
«Developing on AWS» is one of three associate-level AWS courses. This course has been meticulously designed as the first step in an AWS journey tailored for developers. Given that this is an associate-level course, our main focus will be on understanding the fundamental architecture of AWS, specifically from a developer's viewpoint. On AWS, everything is code. Each command you issue within AWS, targeting one of the thousands of different resources, is actually an API call, neatly wrapped behind various interfaces. During this course, we'll begin to explore one of them: the AWS SDK. But it won't be just theoretical learning - you'll have the opportunity to put the topics we cover into practice during hands-on labs.
Our aim is to equip you with enough information, particularly from a conceptual perspective, to instill confidence in your understanding of the programmatic relationship within the AWS API. Although it's impossible to cover every aspect of developing and building on AWS in a three-day course, we are confident that you'll acquire enough knowledge to facilitate and expedite your future learning journey. As instructors, we are seasoned developers ourselves, and as trainers, we will be your guides into the world of AWS development. We will assist you in interpreting and understanding the crucial building blocks in «Developing on AWS».
AWS, as they say, comes with the "batteries included". It boasts more than 200 ready-to-use services. However, the real power in using AWS surfaces when you start comprehending the intricate relationships between individual services, especially the core ones and those that help you connect other services together to ensure they function seamlessly in any solution you can envision. This is one of three specific courses for developers on AWS. Remember, this is the first one. We are eager to invite you to join us and look forward to meeting you in the classroom. For us instructors, teaching AWS Development is never boring or dull. We sincerely hope that your experience as a learner will be equally engaging and enjoyable, and that you will relish spending three days with us learning the basics of AWS development.
