SAFe DevOps

Competing in a disruptive global market requires a shared DevOps mindset among all the people needed to define, build, test, deploy, and release software-driven systems, not just the engineers operating a CI/CD pipeline.

This two-day interactive course helps people across technical, non-technical, and leadership roles work together to optimize their value stream from end to end. They learn what DevOps is, why it is important to every role, and design a continuous delivery pipeline that is tailored to their business. During the course attendees work in cross-functional teams to map their current state value stream from concept to cash, identify major bottlenecks to flow, and build an actionable implementation plan that will accelerate the benefits of DevOps in their organization.

This course prepares attendees to take the exam and become a certified SAFe® DevOps Practitioner.
