A Pragmatic, Simple and Effective Approach

It’s a known fact that there is a shortage of IT specialists, which makes finding the right Cloud specialists more difficult if sometimes impossible. To meets this impediment, Azure Academy offers lifelong learning solutions for existing teams in IT companies, as well as a poll of Cloud specialists companies can recruit from.

A Long-Term Strategy

Azure Academy is a long-term project for all IT companies that want to attract the potential business brought by the growing worldwide Cloud adoption. It is important to mention that Azure Academy is not “just another training”, as we take special care to bring onboard trainers that are super-specialists on the Cloud technology and have the most consistent exposure to complex Cloud projects.

Predictable and Recurrent Recruitment

Azure Academy for Companies is a service helping IT companies recruit relevant, well-trained candidates on the Cloud technology, in a predictable and recurring way.

Continuous education and training for your teams

We believe that continuous education and professional training of existing teams are at the foundation of any successful company. The goal of the Azure Academy is to help the Romanian IT community to remain competitive at international standards, and to create a critical mass of Cloud specialists for the Romanian IT companies.
