CI/CD Pipeline for a Containerised App
Level 1 capstone: a Dockerised application deployed to Amazon EKS through a Jenkins or GitHub Actions pipeline, with its infrastructure defined in Terraform and health, cost and performance monitored end to end.
Multi-Account AWS Landing Zone
Level 2 capstone: a multi-account AWS environment built with AWS Organizations and Control Tower, with automated security guardrails, compliance checks and a cost governance dashboard across every account.
What you will have built by graduation.
Deploy a Containerised Application
Docker and Amazon EKS, from image to running pods.
Automate Infrastructure
Terraform and CloudFormation: infrastructure defined as code.
Build a CI/CD Pipeline
GitHub Actions and AWS, shipping code the way engineering teams do.
Build a Multi-Account Landing Zone
AWS Organizations and Control Tower, governing every account from one place.
Automate Security & Compliance
DevSecOps guardrails that check every deployment automatically.
Build a Cost Governance Dashboard
FinOps tooling that tracks and controls spend across the whole organisation.

Know what you need.
Where to start
Beginner: AWS Cloud Engineering Intermediate, or a placement test on VPCs, load balancing, RDS and CloudFormation.Advanced: Beginner, or a placement test on Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform and CI/CD.
Where graduates go next
Advanced graduates are ready for senior cloud engineer, DevOps engineer and cloud architect roles, and can sit AWS certification exams aligned to each level.
Before you apply.
Do I need experience to join?
Yes. This programme assumes you already run AWS infrastructure. Join Beginner if you have completed AWS Cloud Engineering Intermediate or can pass a placement test on VPCs, load balancing, RDS and CloudFormation.
Which level should I join?
Start with Beginner if you can already design and manage AWS network infrastructure and want to automate, containerise and ship it with CI/CD. Join Advanced once you are comfortable with Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform and CI/CD and want to run multi-account, enterprise-scale cloud environments. Admissions can give you a short placement test if you are unsure.
How long is each level and what does it cost?
Beginner is 3 months at ₦400,000. Advanced is 6 months at ₦650,000.
What will I be able to do after each level?
After Beginner you can containerise applications with Docker, orchestrate them with Kubernetes and Amazon EKS, and ship them through a CI/CD pipeline with infrastructure defined in Terraform. After Advanced you can design and govern multi-account AWS environments with automated security, compliance and cost control.
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. Beginner aligns with AWS Certified CloudOps Engineer – Associate, and Advanced works toward AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Professional. 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?
Working knowledge of AWS networking, EC2, S3, IAM and RDS, and a laptop with at least 8GB of RAM (16GB preferred) so you can comfortably run labs.
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, with real hands-on AWS labs rather than slides alone. You are assessed through quizzes, labs and a capstone project you demo live.
