Virtualization and Cloud Computing is a one-year, two-term Ontario College Graduate Certificate delivered full-time at Conestoga's Waterloo campus. The program focuses on hands-on practices used as organizations migrate physical computing and networking infrastructure to virtual and cloud environments, including public, private and hybrid cloud solutions. Students gain skills in evaluating, designing and implementing cloud infrastructure and services, managing distributed workloads, planning for business continuity, executing cloud-migration strategies and integrating disparate systems. Admission requires a related diploma or degree in computing, information technology or engineering with a B average or above. Graduates are prepared to move into senior information-technology and data-centre roles supporting organizations adopting virtualization and cloud-based infrastructure.
