Overall feeling (1-5): ___

#!/usr/bin/env bash
# Typical early lab: create a key pair and launch an instance (practice account)
set -euo pipefail
REGION=ap-south-1
aws ec2 create-key-pair --key-name lab-key --region "$REGION" \
  --query 'KeyMaterial' --output text > lab-key.pem
chmod 400 lab-key.pem
AMI=$(aws ssm get-parameter --region "$REGION" \
  --name /aws/service/ami-amazon-linux-latest/al2023-ami-kernel-default-x86_64 \
  --query 'Parameter.Value' --output text)
aws ec2 run-instances --region "$REGION" --image-id "$AMI" \
  --instance-type t3.micro --key-name lab-key \
  --query 'Instances[0].InstanceId' --output text

Capstone project example (ask if the course includes similar):

- VPC with public and private subnets across two AZs
- Application Load Balancer in public subnets
- EC2 or containers in private subnets
- RDS database, not publicly accessible
- IAM roles instead of access keys
- CloudWatch alarms and a billing alarm
- Everything defined in Terraform, with a README

criteria = ["format fit", "hands-on labs", "projects", "IaC and cost",
            "doubt support", "career guidance", "clarity of fees and terms"]
# Fill in your own 1-5 scores after demos and conversations
scores = {
    "Provider 1": [4, 4, 4, 3, 4, 3, 4],
    "Provider 2": [3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4],
}
for provider, s in scores.items():
    print(f"{provider}: {sum(s)}/{5 * len(criteria)}")
# Placeholder scores; replace with your own evaluation.

Ask every provider, and get answers in writing:

1. What is the current syllabus, module by module?
2. How many hours are hands-on labs? Who provides the AWS account?
3. Which projects will I build?
4. How are doubts handled during and after classes?
5. What career support is included, exactly?
6. What are the current fees, payment options and refund terms?
7. Can I attend a demo class first?
