Instructor Details

Nikolai Schuler

Are you thinking about pursuing a career as a Data Analyst or Data Scientist?

Do you ever think that your career could take a leap forward if you would have more knowledge and skills in the world of data?

Perhaps you are even feeling overwhelmed by the number of courses available or by the fact that your life is already too full to concentrate on one more course?


I am Nikolai Schuler, I am a data scientist and BI consultant, and I have been there too...

A few years ago I noticed that the world of data benefits from many new tools and technologies. However, I also realized that it is extremely difficult to get trained in the field: Practical courses with real quality content are rare and are often structured in such a way that they are incompatible with a working life full of other tasks and activities.

While going through hours of research and training, I came up with the idea of creating a course that would offer extremely valuable content but that would be at the same time easy to follow due to its structure.

My goal is to help as many people as possible to pursue their desired career in this new Digital Age by enabling them to upgrade their data analysis skills. I am proud to say that I am heading in the right direction as my courses have already found their audience in over 170 countries and received thousands of positive feedbacks.

Passed the exam with 1 week of following the course. Good Content. Helped me pass the certification in First Attempt. I would definitely recommend all to go through it. There are questions on AWS Comprehend/AWS Bedrock/AWS Kendra and a few on ICE Berg format. Hopefully Nicolai can add them as well. More over ML and AI questions are adding up ~ 15% where on LLM/SageMakerAI/Redshift ML/Bedrock etc.

By STEPHEN OMONDI on 2/2/2026

Very comprehensive, professionally curated and effective. I love the course so far. The instructor is knowledgeable and the material is well presented. This is a lot of information though, and requires hands-on engagement to fully grasp what is being presented.

By Ekaterina Gladkikh on 9/15/2025

The course was very good; it filled in all the gaps in my theory after the AWS Skill Builder courses. It paid ample attention to detail, covering a lot of what I needed to pass the exam. The practical lectures were also good; the main thing was to follow along with the instructor. It was easy to understand, the speech was clear, and the questions were explained in understandable language. For me, the course exceeded my expectations. I passed the exam.

By Mohammed Badarneh on 9/2/2025

Great course! Thanks Nikolai for the great effort put into this course! I have taken also before the data warehouse course which was also very good, but I liked especially the improved visuals and layout in the videos in this course, also the contents for the exam were nicely laid out in a logical flow that makes it easy to follow and connect everything all together. Highly recommend!

By Iago Sestrem Ochôa on 8/28/2025

I passed my certification today. The course is ideal for gaining knowledge about the topics that will be covered in the exam, such as the basic concepts. However, I recommend looking for other sources of practical questions because those from this specific course are very simple and do not reflect the actual difficulty level of the test!

By Rammohan Nambiar on 5/12/2025

I started this course a couple of months ago though I had moved to another certification in the interim. I am an experienced data professional who moved to cloud technologies about five years ago. I just passed the exam a couple of days ago and have received my certification. For my way of learning doing the practice exams was key. I completed all the lectures first though and I grasped a lot though I may have overlooked some of the detail. The more practice exams I did the more I could come back and review the topics and that helped to stabilise my understanding. I would suggest that certain services like Datazone may need to be reviewed elsewhere possibly in the AWS training site. I would suggest that the practice exam on the course is insufficient to get a good feel of the topics. Overall an excellent course.

By Aditya Vemuri on 4/4/2025

First of all, Thanks for the wonderful and detailed videos on each and every topic and the respective hands-on activities. I want to give a suggestion here on the slides that are being shown in the videos which are mostly wordings. It would be very helpful and easily able to remember the working/behavior of the AWS service if explained via diagrams or flow charts. Thanks again for the course.

By ANKIT AGARWAL on 12/15/2024

Nikolai, I am very thankful for you for your support by putting your course in Udemy. I always wait to have your new courses. Please prepare for Azure Data Engineering. I am waiting for that. Again, you have made a wonderful and the best of the best course for AWS DEA. Thanks!!

By John Keene on 9/29/2024

This course was well-structured and highly informative. The course materials were clear, and the content was organized in a way that made complex topics easy to understand. The practice test was especially valuable—it thoroughly prepared me and helped me pass the certification exam on the first try. I even received a slightly higher score on the actual exam than on the practice test! I highly recommend this course for anyone aiming to obtain the Certified AWS Data Engineer - Associate certification.

By Min Thein Aung on 6/19/2024

Thanks for the course that covers all the necessary concepts for the exam not only in the simplest way but also with the demos in thorough explanation. By the way, course content: 228. AWS Secrets (Hands-on) is missing, 227 is duplicated instead. :)
