# Self-Contained AWS Account with Budget and Service Controls

A separate AWS account for every learner or cohort, with a spending budget and service controls, for safe AWS training at a fixed price.

- Level: Beginner
- Duration: Set per cohort
- Cost: Fixed price
- Technologies: AWS, AWS Organizations, Service control policies, AWS Budgets, IAM

## What is included

- A self-contained AWS account, isolated from every other learner and from your own company accounts
- A budget on the account with alerts, so spend stays predictable
- Service control policies that allow only the AWS services the course needs
- Access set up before class, so learners start on the exercise
- Cleanup after delivery

## Prerequisites

- A web browser
- No AWS account needed, the account is provided

## How delivery works

1. Scope the course: Tell us which AWS services the course uses and how many learners attend.
2. We set up the accounts: Each learner gets an account with a budget and service controls already in place.
3. Learners sign in and build: Learners work in their own account. The controls block services outside the course.
4. We close it down: After delivery we remove the resources and the learner data.

## FAQ

### Can a learner run up a large bill?

The account has a budget with alerts, and service controls block services outside the course. The price you pay us is fixed.

### Can learners touch our company AWS accounts?

No. Each learner works in a separate, self-contained account.

### Which AWS services can learners use?

Only the ones the course needs. We set the service controls with you during scoping.

### What happens to the data afterwards?

We remove the resources and learner data after delivery.
