What are Immersion Days?
AWS Immersion Days are deep-dive training sessions to help customers and technical professionals get hands-on experience with AWS services. These workshops are designed to educate participants about the AWS cloud platform, enabling them to solve real-world problems using various AWS tools and services.
Key Features
- Hands-On Labs: The core of Immersion Days is practical, hands-on labs where participants can interact with AWS services in a guided environment. This allows them to apply what they learn in real-time, making the experience more practical and relevant.
