New features on A Cloud Guru

New features, ahoy! At ACG, we never rest on our laurels. For one, we can’t imagine how anyone could relax on a shrub (no matter how lovely it is). But even more than that, we think teaching the world to cloud requires always striving to improve the experience for learners and businesses alike.

To that end, we’re happy to announce some new updates coming to the ACG platform across all our plans. New and upcoming features include:

• Learning Scheduler
• New Learning Paths
• Mobile Practice Exams
• Azure Active Directory Labs
• Hands-On Labs Subtitles
• Azure Skills Assessments
• Custom Learning Paths

For learners, these features are all about making it easier than ever to meet your career goals. For businesses, we’re introducing new capabilities to help you customize and manage cloud learning at scale. Read on for all the details!

Our learners tell us the biggest barrier to new skill development is a lack of time. We get it.

Whatever you're juggling (working, parenting, Peloton-ing, literally juggling as a pandemic hobby) it can be tough to keep up with new cloud technologies. That’s why we’re introducing many new platform features to help you meet your career goals.
