Cloud Academy is a hands-on technology skills training platform, now operating as the QA Learning Platform (cloudacademy.com redirects to platform.qa.com). It combines self-paced course content with hands-on labs, learning paths, quizzes, and exams across cloud, security, and software disciplines. Its public REST API lets enterprise administrators integrate the platform with internal business systems — browsing the content catalog, managing organization teams and members, and generating asynchronous reports on learner activity, progress, and skills. Authentication is OAuth2 client-credentials and the public API is rate-limited to 100 requests per minute. Cloud Academy was surfaced as a 500 Global portfolio company and enriched into the API Evangelist network from its live Swagger definition.
