TL500: Red Hat Training: DevOps Culture and Practice Enablement

This is a five-day, immersive class offering students an opportunity to experience and implement cultural shifts that are utilised in many successful DevOps adoption journeys. Many agile training offerings focus on a particular framework, delivery mechanism, or technology. Instead, DevOps Culture & Practice combines the best tools from many leading frameworks to blend continuous discovery and continuous delivery with cultural and technical practices into a unique, highly engaging experience simulating real-world scenarios and applications.
To achieve the learning objectives, participants should include multiple roles from an organisation. Business product owners, architects, developers, and site reliability engineers will gain the experience of working outside of their traditional silos. The daily routine simulates a real-world delivery team, where cross-functional teams learn how collaboration breeds innovation. Armed with shared experiences and best practices, the team can apply what it has learned to help the organisation's culture and mission succeed in the pursuit of new projects and improved processes.
This course includes a copy of the Red Hat Training: Open Practices for your DevOps Journey course book, which can be used as a resource as students take the learnings from this course and apply them to other practical scenarios. This experience demonstrates how individuals across different roles must learn to share, collaborate, and work toward a common goal to achieve positive outcomes and drive innovation.
You will know how to deliver continuous value to customers through an enhanced understanding of changing customer needs and the ability to more rapidly get new ideas to market. Our instructors will share experiences and best practices learned from engaging directly with customers during Red Hat services engagements.

- Business product owners.
