Primary among the sites listed in this repo are AWS Educate, AWS Skill Builder and AWS Workshops. Use these platforms to learn more about AWS technologies in a level-appropriate format.

A note about AWS Educate: please ensure that you are logged in to Educate before accessing specific resources on that site. You may also need to navigate to a course by applying filters.

More interesting resources:

We recommend AWS Cloud Quest, a gamified site where you can learn Cloud fundamentals while having fun and building.
Another excellent resource is What-Is? where you can quickly check definitions of technical terminology in a card format.
