We’re thrilled to share that UNIMY has hit another major milestone — the UNIMY x Alibaba Cloud Partnership has officially gone live! This opens the door for students to gain hands-on cloud infrastructure experience before they even graduate, turning the vision of going beyond theory-only education into something concrete.

What Does This Mean for Students?

Access Like Never Before

UNIMY students now have direct access to industry-level cloud tools and learning resources — including a full year of free cloud server access, letting them experiment, deploy applications, and manage systems in a genuine live environment.

Students also gain access to over 180 online courses through Alibaba Cloud Academy, covering cloud computing, AI, data, and emerging technologies — with the chance to earn free, globally recognised professional certifications including Cloud Engineer Associate and Clouder.

Most importantly, students graduate with real hands-on deployment experience rather than just theoretical understanding — a skillset employers actively look for.

Strong Support for Our Faculty

The partnership also strengthens teaching and delivery at UNIMY. Lecturers will receive Train-the-Trainer support from Alibaba Cloud experts, ensuring industry knowledge flows directly into the classroom, along with access to ready-to-use course materials and a dedicated teaching server for a full year — enabling smoother integration of cloud content into academic programmes, and ensuring lessons stay current, practical, and aligned with real industry practice.

Preparing Graduates Who Are Truly Industry-Ready

Too often, graduates enter the workforce with strong theoretical knowledge but little exposure to real systems. This partnership changes that — students will graduate having deployed, tested, and managed real cloud environments, giving them a real boost in confidence and credibility as they step into the industry.

We’re proud to take this step forward, and can’t wait to see our students build, innovate, and thrive on global cloud infrastructure.
