John Wiley & Sons Inc. (NYSE: JWa and JWb) (Wiley)
today announced a publishing agreement with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to
bring to market official certification study guide learning tools for
the AWS
Certification Program.
The AWS Certification Program recognizes IT professionals that possess
the skills and technical knowledge necessary for building and
maintaining applications and services on the AWS Cloud. To earn an AWS
Certification, individuals must demonstrate their proficiency in a
particular area by passing an AWS Certification Exam.
The AWS Official Study Guide helps prepare candidates for AWS
Certification Exams and includes access to online study tools such as
practice exams, flashcards, chapter tests and assessment tests. The AWS
Certified Solutions Architect Official Study Guide: Associate Exam
(Wiley, ISBN: 978-1-119-13855-6) will be released in October 2016. The
study guide will be available for purchase in hardcopy format on Amazon.com
and in e-reader format on Kindle devices.
“Achieving an AWS Certification demonstrates to customers, employers and
recruiters that you have the skills and knowledge to build AWS
solutions,” said Maureen Lonergan, Director of Worldwide Training and
Certification at Amazon Web Services, Inc. “Working with Wiley and
leveraging their publishing expertise ensures our study guide content
can reach a global audience of IT professionals looking to validate
their technical skills and expertise in designing, deploying and
operating applications and infrastructure on AWS. Wiley is a trusted
