Cloud Capability Development Program

DigiRen helps enterprise and government customers get the most from their Cloud investments.

Australia is suffering from a cloud and modern technology skills shortage. Recent market surveys show that over 70% of organisations don't believe they have the required cloud skills for success. An organisations skills base not only mitigates risk, but it is the foundation to enable the adoption of modern cloud centric ways of working.

Most organizations have made a significant investment in Training and Certification but are yet to realize the benefit. The top three limitations with traditional cloud training include:

(a) taking a “one size fits all” approach and delivering a single cloud training offering with no consideration for the different internal roles or user persona’s

(b) focusing on cloud vendor certifications without considering the need to train participants in their organisation’s wider cloud ecosystem, processes and tools associated with cloud consumption and operations, and

(c) not providing trained people with a pathway to apply newly acquired cloud skills.

DigiRen works with customers to create:

• Cloud skills & enablement programs that incorporate & connect AWS training & Certification services with bespoke training in the organisations internal processes and tools associated with using and managing cloud, and

• “Role-based” learning pathways that leverage this hybrid training curriculum and combine it with candidate coaching and career pathways.

DigiRen cloud skills & enablement programs provide organisational context, articulating the "why" and "how" associated with the use of cloud services. This approach accelerates an individual’s "time to proficiency" and enables organisations to rapidly build organisational capabilities and achieve self-sufficiency.

DigiRen provides advisory services through the entire training lifecycle:

• initial needs analysis and current skills assessment,

• training program & curriculum design, and

• training program management and delivery.

A recent successful customer program achieved the following:

• 10 role-based persona’s and learning pathways were defined

• 250 people were enrolled in the learning program

• Over 600 people attended AWS courses in person

• Nearly 700 AWS courses were completed in AWS Skill builder

• Almost 1000 Internal Cloud Courses that provide crucial context of how AWS is used by the organisation were delivered via E-Learning

• The organisation is on track to achieve 200+ AWS formal certifications.

Establishing a strong organisational cloud skills foundation is a key enabler for organisations to;

• Succeed in cloud migrations,

• Adopt modern architectures such as serverless,

• Move to cloud centric ways of working,

• Uplift cloud operations, compliance, & governance functions, and

• Enable experimentation and adoption of new and innovative technologies such as GenAI.
