      Awesome, congratulations!

      I’ve heard good things about the AWS Security Specialty certificate too. I’ve done a course for it which was great, though I never bothered to take the certificate (I don’t feel the need for it). Have you considered it?

        I had to clear the AWS SAA before nominations started for the certification drive. Unfortunately I cleared my exam after the nomination window. Otherwise would have opted for Security speciality or SAP.

            AWS SAA was a prerequisite for the security speciality in the certification drive but I cleared my exam after the nomination window and it doesn’t look like I can change it at this point.

              I don’t quite know of this certification drive you speak about: is this specific to your company?

              I have a 50% off voucher since I sat for the SAA recently, I’ll just use that hehe

                Yes. My company has a certification drive where it provides a voucher for free of cost.
