Say you like computers and are interested in working in the IT field. There are tons of different careers you can choose from but IT is unique: working in IT gets you good money from the beginning even if you have no degree. Today’s world relies on computer systems. Demand is high, but I guess you know that already.
But how do people enter the IT industry? Typically people study “Information Systems/Computer Science” in a college or university. This is expensive and of long duration for sure. There is another possibility though, look at a few job descriptions in IT. Often a degree is not required.
So here is the idea:
You can acquire the knowledge through selfstudy. Perhaps get some relevant certificates and start looking for a job. Sounds easy, and in fact it is.
The issue is it’s close to impossible for a newbie to identify what books to read, or what certifications to choose in a desirable field. We can help you with that.

Programming basically is a writing software (read computer programs), involves developing lists of instructions to manipulate different types of objects like numbers, words, images, sounds, etc.
Cloud Computing
Cloud Computing is about enabling on-demand access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources, often over Internet.
