The four initiatives announced recently include the launch of AWS Skill Builde, which is a new digital learning experience, the addition of AWS courses to the Amazon.com website, the expansion of the AWS re/Start global reskilling program, and the opening of the AWS Skills Center, which is Amazon’s first dedicated, in-person cloud learning space.
