    Conferences are all about the swag - they need to send a bag of goodies to all attendees.

      I think AWS gives out free AWS credits at the end, usually

      • Do you know how many credits?

        • Most ones will get you $50. sometimes $100.

          I have $400ish stacked up in my account going to waste :-)

        • @xordis:
          What a waste, you should mine xmr using spot instances.

        • @xordis:
          Did they give credit for this webinar? That would be cool

    • also, you get a "Certificate of Attendance" when you complete the all modules.

    Any free alternatives to those that cannot make either time slots?

  • No Lambda?

    Thanks OP for post, registered for tomorrow.
    Does anyone know if there is some kind of practice/proof linked with the Certificate or can I leave the webinar in a browser window open and as soon it finishes it auto-generates a pdf?

    We're doing ours at work today as a group learning sesh, should be interesting!

  • I'm planning to attend the session 2 at 4pm-7pm. Just wondering if the viewing method might get blocked by office intranet, how will this be viewed, as I am in the office during that time?

  • I've already done my AWS accreditation. Is this still worthwhile?

  • +3

    I'm watching this and it's crap. Full of marketing bs, everyone having trouble with the video dropping out.
    You also won't get the free cert because the quiz questions are broken (duplicates of the correct answer, but only 1 of them is 'correct'), and the quiz disappears after 60 seconds without warning you of the time-limit.

    • Agreed. Its crap

    • Thanks for the feedback - if you stick it through please let us know if the video feed improves. I was going to attend session 2.

      I'd rather save 3 hours of my life if there's little to no value due to content or delivery.

      Cheers

      in full screen mode - there should be a button at the bottom of each session window to pull up the quiz

      • Thanks Wally, looks like you can do the quiz as the lecture is running.

    Module 3 was much better. Different presenter, less marketing and more technical.
    I learned a few things from it. Will remove the neg vote if module 4 is good.
