Hi Patrick,
The CCSK is a Cloud (agnostic) Security Certification.
I come from the IT & Information Security background, and I am shifting to the Cloud Security domain now.
The CCSK cert is an excellent entry point for Cloud Security staff.
I would recommend to study also CompTIA Security+ to get a general foundational idea of Info Sec, and focus then on cloud vendor tracks
AWS, Azure, GCP
And then try to pursue the CCSP cert as well the CISSP,
Good luck on you cloud journey :)

Subject: CCSK certification for someone entering the Cybersecurity field
Hello,
I'm Patrick Clark a 33 year old who wants to enter cybersecurity specifically in the field of cloud computing. I have a full time job as a teacher working with children with learning disabilities while also bartending a couple of nights a week. I recently started studying the Security guidance, For critical areas of focus in cloud computing v4.0. I plan on taking the CCSK exam near the end of summer and wanted to know if I pass the exam will I be able to search for entry level positions in the field or even go towards the vendor side.
Any responses or insight would be much appreciated.
