The Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA) program was created by The Linux Foundation and the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF).
Kubernetes is nowadys a leading platform used for containers orchestration.
NobleProg have been delivering Docker & Kubernetes training from 2015. With more than 360 successfully completed training projects, we became one of the best known training companyworldwide in field of containerization.
Since 2019 we are also helping our customers to confirm their performance in k8s environment by preparing them and encouraging to pass CKA and CKAD exams.
This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is aimed at System Administrators, Kubernetes User swho wish to confirm their knowledge by passing CKA exam.
