What I learned: AWS Partner Sales & Technical accreditation
Two complementary badges: one on value and customer conversations, one on technical breadth across AWS.
In short
Useful when cloud adoption involves sales, solutions architects, and engineers together—so proposals match both business outcomes and technical reality.
The credentials
- Sales Accreditation — Credly link. Focus: cloud value, common objections, co-selling with AWS.
- Technical Accredited — Credly link. Focus: global infrastructure, core services, migration, security at partner onboarding depth.
What I took away
- Translating technical constraints into language stakeholders can act on.
- Recognizing when a workload needs migration planning vs a greenfield pattern.
- Keeping security and compliance in the first conversation, not as a late add-on.
