“I am grateful for the SnowPro Core Preparation Course, which I took to prepare for the Snowflake SnowPro Core certification. The concise, targeted videos, organized by exam domains, made the learning process incredibly efficient. The four-hour duration was perfect for a quick comprehension of essential concepts.

Adam Morton

Snowflake Data Superhero

Adam Morton was first introduced to Snowflake in 2017, and after working with more traditional database technology for many years, he found it to be a real breath of fresh air! Lots of things that were tedious to configure in the old world just worked straight out of the box with Snowflake. This meant Adam could focus on his true passion of adding business value for his clients more quickly.

However, at that point in time, Adam found it difficult to find valuable, relevant content he could consume today and apply tomorrow. It was a time-consuming task to research and test what worked well and what didn’t. Snowflake has new and innovative features, dictating a change of approach and a departure from the traditional mindset required to work with the data warehouse technologies which predated it.

Following several highly visibility roles over the years, which included Head of Data for a FTSE 100 Insurer, he accumulated a wealth of valuable, real-world experiences designing and implementing enterprise-scale Snowflake deployments across the UK, Europe, and Australia.

As a byproduct of overcoming several business and technical challenges along the way, Adam found a formula that works. A lot of these experiences formed the basis for Adam to be endorsed as an internationally recognized leader in his field as he was awarded a Global Talent Visa by the Australian Government in 2019.

Today, Adam is on a mission to help as many IT professionals as possible escape dead-end jobs and supercharge their careers by breaking into cloud computing using Snowflake.
