Career objective
Return to a senior cloud data-engineering position.
The story
I spent eleven years building data platforms, the last four leading a warehouse migration for a mid-sized logistics firm. My team was cut in a restructure last autumn and the market I am re-entering wants proof of current cloud credentials rather than the on-premise experience my CV leads with. I have been studying since January and am passing practice exams on two of the three; what I am short of is the exam fees themselves.
What the funding covers
Exam vouchers and one authorized retake only.
