This new announcement is part of AWS's ongoing efforts in helping organizations of all sizes to close skills gap. Since 2017, AWS has trained over 5 million people across APAC with cloud skills. With the pandemic driving the acceleration of digital transformation, digital skills and learning have become key components for many organizations, especially with rapid technological changes contributing to a widening digital skills gap. The demand for specialist skills was highlighted in a recent survey published by KPMG[1] in January 2022, which showed that specialist talent availability is one of the key concerns of the banking industry in Hong Kong. In order to combat this talent shortage, it is important for businesses to make digital skills training a priority.The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.
