The Abu Dhabi Investment Office (ADIO) and Amazon Web Services (AWS) have launched a cloud training programme to upskill, train and certify Abu Dhabi-based small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).

Participants will also gain access to digital on-demand AWS Training content, pre- and post-programme assessments, and monthly reporting.

The Khalifa Fund for Enterprise Development is supporting the initiative through outreach and engagement with SMEs in Abu Dhabi.
