How does AWS Certified Developer Associate differ from AWS Certified Solutions Architect?
Both certifications are valuable, but they target different roles and focus on different skill sets.
This course, AWS Certified Developer Associate, is intended for Software Developers, Cloud Developers, Software Engineers, DevOps Engineers, Application Developers, and professionals in similar roles who want to build, deploy, and maintain applications on the AWS platform. Its exam questions focus on development tasks such as code optimization, debugging, and deployment.
Meanwhile, the AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate is aimed at Solutions Architects who design and deploy scalable, reliable, and cost-effective systems on AWS, as well as Cloud Architects, Cloud Consultants, and Systems Engineers. This exam covers a broader range of topics, including a deep understanding of various AWS services, how they interact, and how to design systems that utilize these services effectively.
Ultimately, you need to choose based on what interests you the most.

FAQs
Yes, we do provide courses suitable for beginners. However, Firebrand's accelerated courses aren't easy and it's essential that you are interested and actively pursuing a career in IT.
Traditional training providers usually run their courses from 9am to 5pm. At Firebrand Training we maximise the number of learning hours to minimise the number of training days, so you’ll be back to your job as quickly as possible. You don’t waste time travelling to several courses and finding an exam centre after that.
Firebrand's accelerated courses are constantly reviewed. We ask our delegates for feedback after every course. We are official partners with leading vendors and therefore, we're provided with certification changes and updates, which we can then implement in our course delivery at a very early stage. This feedback is then analysed in view of changes or discrepancies. We will then address the topics mentioned and have a panel of subject matter experts provide us with valuable suggestions for improvement and solutions.
If you need to learn new skills and you want to be able to put them into practice quickly, then Firebrand is the right training company for you.
Our unique accelerated training method means that we are your fastest way to learn. By delivering training for up to 12 hours per day, seven days per week, with exam centres on-site, we ensure that you are trained and certified quicker than anywhere else, having spent less time out of the office away from the day job.
