Learning objectives

  • Understand the fundamental concepts of infrastructure as code and CloudFormation
  • Write, structure, and deploy effective CloudFormation templates
  • Automate the allocation, management, and updating of AWS resources with CloudFormation
  • Secure and version stacks and manage template modularity
  • Implement advanced automation strategies and continuous integration with CloudFormation

The Learni story

Founded by engineers and learning experts, Learni's mission is to make high-impact tech training accessible to teams everywhere. We work remotely with organizations across the US and Canada, in your time zone, to help teams upskill fast.

Don't let this gap widen

Why this program matters

  • Without this upskilling, your team accumulates a technological gap that translates directly into productivity loss.

  • Organizations that don't train their talents on key topics see their competitiveness drop.

  • Every quarter without training is a gap widening with competitors who invest.

  • The cost of inaction quickly exceeds that of well-targeted training.

Program

Module 1Introduction, first resources, and best practices

Discovery of Infrastructure as Code principles, presentation of CloudFormation and its advantages. Analysis of CloudFormation architecture: stacks, templates, resources, parameters, and outputs. Workshop: creation of first templates to generate simple services (EC2, S3, IAM). Implementation of writing best practices (YAML/JSON), validation, and feedback on common errors.

Module 2Automated deployment, modularity, and security

Advanced management of parameters, mappings, conditions, and complex outputs. Introduction to modularity: inclusion of templates, use of modules and advanced intrinsic functions. Securing access and IAM roles in CloudFormation templates. Implementation of change control strategies and permission management (drift, stack policies, rollback). Practical scenario: creation of a secure multi-tier web infrastructure.

Module 3Advanced orchestration, CI/CD, and production best practices

Integration of CloudFormation with automation tools (CLI, SDK, AWS CodePipeline), CI/CD pipelines, and multi-environment management. Advanced modularization with StackSets, nested stacks, and resource sharing. DevOps approach: update management, rollbacks, versioning, and stack monitoring. Complete practical case: automate the deployment of a scalable application infrastructure, audit and documentation of the stack.

Evaluation method

  • Multiple-choice quiz at the end of each day
  • Case studies and collective review of created templates
  • Final presentation of a complete stack project

Learning method

  • Alternation between detailed theoretical courses and step-by-step practical workshops
  • Access to AWS labs for hands-on practice
  • PDF materials, example templates, and best practices guides provided

Methods, materials and delivery

The Training Automating AWS Infrastructure with CloudFormation: From Beginner to Expert program is delivered onsite or remote (blended-learning, virtual classroom, remote presence). At Learni, an industry-certified training organization, every program is built to maximize skills acquisition regardless of the chosen format.

The trainer alternates between demonstrative, interrogative and active methods (through hands-on labs and/or scenarios). This pedagogical approach guarantees concrete learning that's immediately applicable at work.

Our method

Training quality, guaranteed at every step

Before, during, after: we frame the brief, introduce the trainer, tailor the content and measure impact. You stay in control from kickoff to wrap-up.

Step 1

Rigorous trainer selection

Each trainer is validated on three criteria: hands-on field expertise, proven pedagogy and alignment with your industry.

  • Triple validation: technical, pedagogical, sectoral.
  • Minimum rating 4.8/5 over the last 12 sessions.
Step 2

You meet the trainer beforehand

30-minute video call between you and the selected trainer to validate the fit, adjust content and clear any final doubts.

  • Live briefing on goals and team context.
  • Veto right — we swap the trainer for free if needed.
Step 3

Content tailored to your context

No recycled slides. The syllabus is reworked from your real cases: tools, constraints, vocabulary, ongoing projects.

  • Hands-on cases drawn from your stack and projects.
  • Program co-written then validated by your team.
Step 4

Continuous quality follow-up

Live evaluations, 30/90/180-day check-ins and a consolidation plan. If the impact misses the mark, we rework it.

  • NPS, knowledge quizzes and skills self-assessment.
  • Satisfaction guarantee: fully satisfied or free rework.

A simple promise: you don't pay to discover the trainer on day one. Everything is validated upfront, by you.
