Project Summary.
The client.

Challenges.
Enabling people to work with new skills so as to boost business value from the cloud.
MedHelp had been using AWS for 3 years, with Nordcloud providing managed services. The company wanted to move to the next stage of their cloud journey, taking platform administration in-house. Envisaging their cloud-enabled future, the goal was to boost their ability to respond to market changes in real time – and to increase velocity for innovation.
To do this, MedHelp needed to address its digital skills mismatch and truly enable people to work with cloud skills.
Learning the foundation of AWS was quite easy on our own, but to fully leverage the more powerful features of the cloud, we needed some help.

Solutions.
Training programme focused on closing skills gaps and embedding new ways of working. After assessing MedHelp’s current capabilities, we developed a training plan to enable people with new skills and then help embed them into day-to-day working practices.
We scoped out a 3-course AWS training track to be delivered every other week for a team of 10 experts. Each course was a mixture of instructor-led training, group exercises and hands-on labs, so team members could apply the new skills and theories in a working environment.
