Hello,

I'm looking for a good up to date online course for the Certified Solutions Architect Associate exam.

I'm looking for video training to compliment the Amazon study guide.

What have you guys used to prepare and pass the exam ?

Thank you

    I used Linux Academy and found it very good. A few days prior to the exam I used the official practice exam too.

    Have you made it to the end? I liked the course until I got to the final exam questions. I feel like the quiz questions are all 1+1 and the final exam is some kind of quantum physics lol.

    That being said, A Cloud Guru is still highly recommended everywhere I check, so yes. That. I also heard of Qwiklabs for practice but they have a weird pricing system.

    No, I restarted the course after getting almost to the end of the EC2 section.

    Fair warning, none of the current sites (acloud, linuxacademy, or cloudacademy) provide a good representation of the question/format you will see on the exam. Sometimes it is not even the question that is the issue, the answers themselves can be longer then the question with very small differences between them. I spent a lot of time going back to the top of the answer key because by the time I had gone down to Answer D - I totally forgot what answer A described.
