ABOUT AGILEST® AADE™
The AADE™ (Adaptive Agile DevOps Engineer) certification training from Agilest® is the next step in the process, and the AATD™ (Adaptive Agile Team DevOps) certification (or passing the exam) is required to attend.
The AADE™ (Adaptive Agile DevOps Engineer) certification training is intended for the Agile Engineers at organizations that are engaged setup and maintenance the environments and the organizational governance around DevOps. The core focus is on enabling those who are leading Agile development practices and engineering implementation with the primary skills they will need to be successful.
The focuses of the AADE™ certification training are the core Agile Engineering skills needed for achieving quality the Agile way. Understanding the vision and why our organization is implementing DevOps and then creating a strategic roadmap that is unique to you organization is one of the foundational goals of understanding in this training. The next primary goal is understanding how the configurations align with the organizational vision and the order that will most effectively improve the development.
What sets the certification training provided by Agilest® apart is the focus on exercises that both reinforce the topic information, and create confidence in the participants so they can perform the activities once they return to their workplace. We do believe things like the history of certain different tools, patterns, and the “thought leaders” are important, but, classroom time is limited, and we believe that the time interacting with instructors experienced in the field is best spent getting to the understanding of how things work. We include history lessons where they belong, in the appendix of the workbooks that we supply along with the courses that we provide.
Real knowledge comes from doing, so we dedicate a significant portion of the classroom time focused on workshop activities that develop critical Agile product management skills. Including developing a DevOps strategy, understanding the ROI, development governance & standards, architectural and deployment patterns that reduce risk, leveraging cloud services, reducing the fragility of legacy code with containerization, building Jenkins farms for huge enterprise systems, and using telemetry metrics to identify problem patterns before they become an issue.
Our goal is the success of our students, and we have made an effort to include everything that will help them in their particular role. We are continuously updating and adding to the content that we make available. Of important note, we are a company that does what it teaches, and we provide our students what we use when delivering at clients. We make everything that we have empirically proven to be useful, available to our certification training participants.
