Which AWS Pro cert after passing all three associates exams?

[armand]

I currently have all three AWS associate certs coming up for renewal next year and I want to take both SA Pro and DE Pro before the end of the year. Currently, I work at a startup using AWS for the past ~3.5/4 years and work on the whole stack.

Based on the above, which is the recommended order to take the pro certs?

Hello armand,

Thanks for posting here and congratulations on passing all three Associate level exams! As for the next steps, it will depend on the kind of career track that you want to pursue.

Having both would certainly boost your credentials (on top of work experience of course). In terms of demand, those who are in a solutions architecture role seem to be more marketable and since there are already a lot of professionals who have the SA-Associate certification, it’s great to pursue the higher level cert for this (SA-Pro).

I hope this helps and we wish you all the best on your AWS journey!

Cheers,

Thanks for the reply. I will switch gears and prepare for the SA Pro now. After I finish the course from Stephane Maarek, I have both his SA and DE Pro courses, I’ll do your practice test. That seems to be the recommend combo.

Do you have a eta on when the SA Pro ebook will be released? I would like to the combo deal of the practice test and ebook like the one you have for DevOps.

The Solutions Architect Professional eBook is currently in progress and intended to be released in about a month. We have no specific release date yet so keep following our site for updates. 🙂

thanks for the update! I’ll buy as soon as it comes up. This is good timing because I have 2 courses to finish for the SA Pro and I should be done in about a month 🙂

if i buy the SA Pro practice test now, then can I buy the SA Pro eBook with a discounted price as if I bought the bundle?
