There comes a time in everyone’s career where we are faced with an opportunity to invest in ourselves and take the next step.
Unfortunately for many (or probably most) of us, we either aren’t able to recognize it when it comes, or anticipate similar chances down the road that never present themselves. Don’t make that mistake.
Introducing Cloud Marathon
A 100-day commitment to learning facilitated by Cloud Academy, the Cloud Marathon begins on June 14, 2021. Sign up and complete the Full Marathon (60 minutes of studying per day for 100 days) or Half Marathon (60 minutes of studying for 50/100 days) and your education is free or half-off, respectively.
They say luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity. This is a chance to make your own luck.
