HNC Cloud computing

Course Overview:
The courses are awarded by Pearson UK and developed in collaboration with Amazon Web Services Educate. The HNC and HND course content is closely aligned
with the needs of employers, professional bodies, vendors and higher education for a skilled future workforce with a range of modules to cater for a range of
progression plans. Students will study the HNC (Level 4) course during the first year of study and upon successful completion of the HNC qualification
students can progress on to the HND (Level 5) course.

The HNC qualification has been aligned with the Cloud Practitioner Certification from Amazon Web Services (AWS) and the Cloud Support Associate job role.
