The first e-learning module comprising of the first three steps in the Cloud Industry Forum’s 21 stage Cloud Adoption Roadmap, has been launched. The online training course encompasses detailed training programmes on ‘Cloud Essentials’, ‘The Impact of Cloud on IT’ and ‘Cloud Strategy’.
Alex Hilton, CEO of the Cloud Industry Forum, stated: “Online learning courses are now regarded as one of the most popular and engaging methods of training and learning. As a result, we have commissioned the development of a series of e-learning modules that focus on the complete Cloud adoption journey. The courses have been designed and developed with our Professional Members in mind enabling IT, procurement and business professionals to access a huge pool of Cloud research, guides and courses and helps them validate their knowledge though training and certification.”
This is the first of three e-learning modules being made available to CIF members and Professional Members and follows the framework of 21 stages covered by the CIF Cloud Adoption Roadmap.
The Cloud Adoption Roadmap has five sections and 21 unique stages. It has been created to provide guidance and resources relevant to each stage and ultimately helps distil this complex type of undertaking into a manageable project framework.
The e-learning modules are also designed to support the CIF certification programme and form the bulk of the support material needed to study for the initial CIF Cloud Ready Accreditation.
Alex continued: “As we continue to expand the CIF membership programme and develop more advanced accreditations, we will develop and release all 21 stages. This granular approach will enable individual members and our rapidly growing Professional Membership group to customise and build their own curriculum of learning by selecting the modules that are relevant to their needs and also allows us to provide guidance and support to professionals working in specific areas.”
