Workshop Details
What makes this workshop stand out
🎯What you will learn and take away
After two days of Docker training, you will work confidently with containers. Here is what you take home:
Build your own Docker images with Dockerfiles and keep them lean using multi-stage builds
Set up and manage multi-container environments with Docker Compose
Understand networking and volumes and configure them for your projects
All exercises run in our cloud environment. No local setup, no hassle. You take working code home with you.
Without standardized container processes, your team loses time on environment issues instead of building features. This Docker training changes that:
No more "works on my machine": Standardized Dockerfiles and Compose setups ensure everyone on the team uses the same environment
Faster releases: Your team can independently build, test, and deploy containers
Cut onboarding from weeks to days: New hires start with a single docker compose up instead of days of manual setup
Small groups of up to 8 participants, so we can address questions from your specific project context.
📋Prerequisites
Required:
Basic Linux knowledge and experience with the terminal
Comfortable working in a text editor or IDE
Not required:
Programming skills (this training is also suitable for admins and DevOps engineers)
Prior experience with Docker or containers

"My colleagues specifically looked for a sysadmin course for Docker with another provider and had an instructor who only set up an IDE for them and then only worked on a task sheet with development tasks. I had a course with lots of background information, an instructor who had a really extensive knowledge of the whole subject matter beyond the slides, and I feel optimally informed."

"From my perspective, the workshop had the right speed and an appropriate level of challenge. The subject matter was explained clearly by the instructor and practically consolidated with well-distributed exercises. Adjusting the workshop focus to the participants wishes was not a problem. Valuable practical experiences were shared, and even more specific questions were gladly answered. The instructor's professional expertise and extensive practical experience on the subject gave this workshop a special quality."
