The Challenge

Emids recognized the growing need to improve its employees’ technical capabilities and enhance its partnership with Microsoft. With several upcoming projects requiring Azure expertise, Emids needed to upskill its workforce rapidly, certifying employees in Microsoft Azure AZ 204 (Azure Developer) to ensure the success of key initiatives. 

The challenge was to equip employees with the foundational skills necessary for both immediate project demands and long-term career development. CloudThat was tasked with delivering an efficient, scalable, and tailored training program to prepare employees for certification while enhancing their overall technical proficiency. 

"Working with CloudThat has been an incredibly positive experience for us at Emids. I was highly impressed with CloudThat’s responsiveness and flexibility throughout the training process. The seamless adjustments to the training schedule and quick resolution of issues ensured everything ran smoothly. Our employees found the content highly relevant and applicable to their work, which has led to a noticeable shift in their attitudes toward learning and development. Thanks to CloudThat, we've been able to equip our team with crucial Azure skills that will help us navigate the evolving healthcare technology landscape. We’re excited to track the long-term impact as our employees continue to apply their newly acquired skills to critical healthcare projects."

The program’s inherent flexibility allowed Emids to adapt the training schedule to internal demands, ensuring minimal business disruption while delivering maximum impact.

The training program yielded several key outcomes: 

  • Employee Empowerment: Participants experienced a significant boost in confidence and demonstrated a strong willingness to pursue further training, creating a foundation for ongoing professional development.
