Conception:

The number of participants is limited to ten persons to ensure an aim-oriented and efficient realization of this workshop. This allows an intense examination of the course content and the opportunity to settle individual questions and problems.

The exchange between the participants is of particular importance for us. This is also the reason why all participants are lodged in the same hotel so that a lot of scope for discussions and exchange of experience is allowed between the participants outside the workshop hours.

Targeted audience:

During these three days we will intensively go through the mentioned topics in theory and topics. Presentations will be complemented by practical exercises. This course is ideal for those that are new to an organization already using Puppet, or experienced System Administrators wanting to bring Puppet into their teams as a new solution. Puppet Fundamentals is also the recommended preparatory training for the Puppet Certification Exam.  You will learn everything to apply Puppet successfully in this workshop.
