MIAMI, November 12, 2025 - Cloud Veterans has been named a Platinum Winner in Pluralsight’s 2025 Best in Tech Awards, celebrating organizations that lead in technology learning, workforce development, and innovation.

Founded in 2019 by Gregory Scott Henson, former CEO of Aliando, a global Microsoft partner, Cloud Veterans is a 100% volunteer-run nonprofit helping U.S. military veterans and spouses launch meaningful careers in cloud computing. The organization provides free training, certification support, mentorship, and job placement services — equipping service members with the skills and confidence to thrive in the digital economy.


OUR MISSION

Every year, more than 200,000 veterans transition out of the military and face challenges finding employment. Cloud Veterans bridges that gap by offering comprehensive, free cloud education — from guided learning paths and exam prep to résumé support and job placement. The mission is simple: to ensure veterans are valued, supported, and empowered to lead in the fast-growing world of cloud technology.


RECOGNITION THAT MATTERS

This award underscores Cloud Veterans’ dedication to transforming gratitude into opportunity. Through partnerships with leaders like Pluralsight, the organization helps veterans earn in-demand certifications across AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud. Its hands-on learning approach and personalized mentorship accelerate both career readiness and industry innovation.

“We’re deeply honored to receive Pluralsight’s 2025 Best in Tech Award,” said Gregory Scott Henson, Executive Director of Cloud Veterans. “This recognition represents what’s possible when purpose meets partnership — veterans, educators, and technology leaders working together to create meaningful futures in the cloud industry.”

LOOKING AHEAD

To date, Cloud Veterans has helped nearly 100 veterans and military spouses transition into cloud careers and is on track to assist more than 1,000 by the end of 2025. Powered entirely by volunteers and supported by strategic partners, the organization continues to expand its reach, providing veterans with access to cutting-edge training, certifications, and career opportunities worldwide.
