CompTIACompTIA Cloud Essentials+
CompTIA Cloud Essentials+ shows that you understand cloud computing from a business angle: cloud concepts and service models, the financial and operational impact of moving to the cloud, and the governance, risk and compliance questions to ask. It suits business analysts, managers and sales and procurement staff who take part in cloud decisions.
The certification was awarded for passing exam CL0-002, with no technical prerequisites, but CompTIA has since permanently retired the credential, so it can no longer be newly earned. Our Cloud Essentials+ course still builds the same business-focused cloud knowledge through case studies and discussion.

Renewal and validity
Cloud Essentials+ sits outside CompTIA's continuing education programme, so holders need no continuing education units or fees to keep it, even though the credential itself has been retired. Check CompTIA's current policy if you rely on it, because requirements change.
