Atos supercharges its Cloud and GenAI training program to accelerate clients’ Cloud Transformation Journeys

Paris, France – March 27, 2024

Atos today announces it has surpassed the 2,000 AWS Certification Distinction level, reaching close to 3,000 certifications. AWS Certification Distinction is an industry-recognized credential demonstrating Atos’ teams’ ability to design, deploy and operate applications and infrastructure on AWS.

Upskilling Atos employees is a pillar of the 5-year CloudCatalyst program between Atos and Amazon Web Services (AWS), intended to supercharge cloud adoption for clients. Atos experts across 24 countries have embarked on 6-month learning pathways across 15 job-specific curricula in core AWS technologies, which take on average 160 hours each to complete.

In the first year alone, some 2,000 Atos employees have obtained certifications in Cloud and Generative AI domains, enabling them to better serve clients through their cloud transformation journey.

To keep the momentum going, Atos and AWS launched a 4-week challenger program available to any employee. Designed to motivate and reward those who want to advance their Cloud and Generative AI skills, the yearly program has convinced over 2,000 Atos employees who voluntarily signed up for the first wave.

Brooks Borcherding, Atos Global Head AWS Practice said “Empowered by these thorough upskilling programs, our teams are able to draw on their deep knowledge of our customer’s business and leverage Atos’ proven managed infrastructure services capabilities to deliver a seamless customer experience across the cloud continuum.”
