Before you apply.
Do I need experience to join?
No. Beginner starts from zero and only needs basic computer literacy. If you already have some IT or cloud experience, ask admissions about a placement test so you can join Intermediate.
Which level should I join?
Start with Beginner if you are new to cloud computing, technology or IT. Join Intermediate if you already understand the AWS Management Console, EC2 and S3 and want to network, secure and monitor cloud infrastructure. Ready to go deeper into infrastructure design? Continue into our AWS Cloud Engineering programme after Intermediate. Admissions can give you a short placement test if you are unsure.
How long is each level and what does it cost?
Beginner is 5 weeks at ₦150,000. Intermediate is 8 weeks at ₦250,000.
What will I be able to do after each level?
After Beginner you can launch and manage a virtual server, store files in the cloud, and host a simple website on AWS. After Intermediate you can build a secure cloud network, manage users and permissions with IAM, deploy a web application and monitor it in production, ready to move on to AWS Cloud Engineering.
Will training cost me money on AWS?
No. You practice in MEL-managed AWS lab accounts with billing alerts and usage limits, so you can focus on learning without worrying about cloud charges.
Does this training prepare me for AWS certification?
Yes. This programme is aligned with the AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (CLF-C02) certification curriculum. Certification exam fees are separate from MEL training fees, and we help you prepare for the exam.
What do I need before the first class?
Basic computer literacy and a laptop with a stable internet connection. A basic understanding of the internet and networking is helpful but not compulsory.
Do I get a certificate?
Yes. You receive a MEL Technologies certificate of completion when you finish a level, separate from any AWS certification you choose to sit for.
How are classes delivered and assessed?
Classes are live and instructor-led, taught by certified, experienced trainers, combining theory with hands-on AWS labs, guided demonstrations and real-world cloud deployment projects. You are assessed through quizzes, labs and a capstone project you demo live.
