Right outside my window I see the leaves starting to change. This fall there are also changes at the IBM Center for Cloud Training (ICCT). Take a look:
- No prerequisites for specialties.
- New: badges! Earn ICCT badges as you work through cloud training curricula.
- Missed a Study Jam? Check out our video archive of September’s Study Jams.
- Second chance to succeed: Retake your certification exam for free.
- Become ICCT famous. Find out about the ICCT Faces Showcase.
In addition to all these exciting changes, I plan to add another certification to my personal credential portfolio, IBM Cloud for Financial Services. Join me on the journey to expand my skills while learning more about cloud.
Move faster than ever with IBM Cloud specialties — no prerequisites!
You may already work in a cloud specialty area. Now you can quickly verify your expertise — because the IBM Center for Cloud Training has eliminated prerequisite requirements for specialty certifications.
There are no prerequisite requirements for certification in these four specialties: IBM Cloud for Financial Services Specialty, IBM Cloud Security Engineer Specialty, IBM Cloud DevSecOps Specialty, and IBM Cloud Satellite Specialty.
New: ICCT badges!
Here is another opportunity to show what you know. Announcing five new badges from ICCT — with more on the way. Earn ICCT badges as you work through cloud training curricula by scoring well on knowledge quizzes. IBM Cloud Technical Advocate and IBM Cloud Security Engineer Specialty badges are available now.
Missed the September Study Jams? We’ve got you covered!
It is never too late to learn more! In case you missed them, the September Study Jam replays are now available. IBM Cloud Technical Advocate and IBM Cloud Security Engineer Specialty. Gain the knowledge you need. And earn a badge.
Life is full of second chances, including IBM Cloud certification.
Get an extra chance to pass your IBM Cloud certification exam — for free — with a new program from the IBM Center for Cloud Training and Pearson VUE. It’s called “Second Chance.”
The Second Chance promotion is exactly what it sounds like — an opportunity to retake your ICCT Cloud certification exam for free if you don’t pass the first time.
Celebrate your accomplishments with the ICCT Faces Showcase.
Share your success! The IBM Center for Cloud Training wants to showcase your accomplishment in our Faces Showcase by displaying your image on the ICCT website as an IBM Cloud certified professional.
