The Rolling Scopes is an independent international community of developers (mainly JavaScript, Front-end, AWS, iOS, Android, etc.).

RS School is a free-of-charge and community-based education program run by the Rolling Scopes developer community since 2013. Thousands of graduated trainees in 11 countries and 500+ mentors around the world.

• Open to everyone. Free courses, no obligations, and no contracts. No age limit. Only students’ time and dedication are required. Students can repeatedly attend courses.
• Open source philosophy. Our Learning Management System platform and education materials are publicly available on GitHub and YouTube.
• Teach it forward According to this principle, students study at school for free, but we request that they return as mentors to pass on their knowledge to the next generation of students.

RS AWS Club - part of The Rolling Scopes focused on NodeJS and AWS technologies. We meet regularly to share ideas, answer questions, and learn about new services and best practices.

1. We organize weekly online meetings. Our guest speakers are AWS architects and AWS developers. Everyone is invited! Recordings can be found on our youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@RollingScopesSchool/videos

2. We organize offline meetups under the AWS User Groups brand Together with AWS experts our RS activists build local AWS User Groups in different cities: Tashkent (UZ), Yerevan(AM), Astana (KZ), Almata(KZ), Bishkek(KG), Gdansk(PL) etc and organize in-person meetups. For example:

• https://www.meetup.com/aws-tashkent/
• https://www.meetup.com/aws-user-group-armenia/

If you are interested in organizing in-person meetups in your city, please contact us.

3. We provide AWS courses.

The program is divided into three courses: Fundamentals, Cloud Developer, and Architect. Its aim is to help students acquire and enhance their knowledge of AWS, which will enable them to become fully functional cloud-native developers after obtaining the AWS Certified Developer - Associate certification. The Architect course of this program is optional and focuses on improving architectural skills in designing cloud-based solutions and archiving AWS Certified Architect - Associate and AWS Certified Architect - Professional.

• AWS Fundamentals Course
• AWS Cloud Developer Course (under construction)
• AWS Architect Course (planned)
