Amazon Web Services (AWS) has signed a cloud skills-focused three-year memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the UK government’s Ministry of Defence (MoD).
The arrangement will see AWS provide three years’ support to the MoD’s Digital Skills for Defence programme, which is geared to provide “critical” digital skills to people working in the defence sector.
Specifically, Amazon’s involvement in the initiative will see it roll out cloud-based skills development and training to thousands of defence personnel and those working in the wider defence supply chain, to protect the UK from emerging threats.
