Student Speak
 After going through this program, I am able to review
 my career goals and plan my strategies for achieving
 them. Your advice and career sessions were very
 helpful and gave us a new perspective on available
 opportunities. Thank you for bringing out the best in
 us! And if you specifically ask me if I will refer this      SRN Rao Musunuri
 program to my friends and colleagues?                        Cloud DevOps Engineer
 Well, I already did!
 Thank you Great Learning, I graduated AWS-CSAA
 with 87%. GL-PGPCC course modules are great
 resource of learning before giving the AWS –CSAA
 certification. This is the only course in the market which
 covers Analytical and Big Data AWS services.                Kishore Redippalli

 I did not have a clue about cloud and applications
 prior to this course, but now I am confident of the
 technology. The course is fantastic.
