Learning objectives

  • Master the principles of ADR for professional, certifiable documentation

The Learni story

Founded by engineers and learning experts, Learni's mission is to make high-impact tech training accessible to teams everywhere. We work remotely with organizations across the US and Canada, in your time zone, to help teams upskill fast.

Don't let this gap widen

Why this program matters

  • Without this upskilling, your team accumulates a technological gap that translates directly into productivity loss.

  • Organizations that don't train their talents on key topics see their competitiveness drop.

  • Every quarter without training is a gap widening with competitors who invest.

  • The cost of inaction quickly exceeds that of well-targeted training.

Program

Module 1ADR Fundamentals: Principles and Initial Setup (Markdown Templates, MADR)

Dive into the fundamentals of Architecture Decision Records with an analysis of MADR standards and customizable templates, set up your Git-based documentation environment, write your first ADR on a concrete business case such as choosing a database, practice evaluating the strengths and weaknesses of alternatives, and produce a deliverable ready to integrate into a project repository for immediate and professional traceability.

Module 2Advanced ADR Templates: Structuring and Collaborative Tools (Git, AsciiDoc)

Create advanced ADR templates adapted to your technology stacks using Markdown and AsciiDoc, collaborate in real-time with tools like GitHub Pull Requests and Notion for collective reviews, apply them to real microservices architecture scenarios, generate automated decision reports, and validate practical exercises that transform your knowledge into directly applicable enterprise skills.

Module 3ADR Integration: Agile and DevOps Workflows (CI/CD, Jira)

Integrate ADRs into your CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins or GitLab, automate publishing via Git hooks and Jira/Confluence links, simulate an agile sprint where each architectural decision generates a traceable ADR, practice resolving conflicting merges through ADR reviews, and produce a governance dashboard that accelerates team onboarding, demonstrating concrete business value by the end of the session.

Module 4ADR Analysis: Audit and Optimization (Lint Tools, Quality Metrics)

Audit existing ADR portfolios with dedicated linting tools and quality metrics such as completeness and consistency, identify gaps in real business cases like failed cloud migrations, optimize obsolete ADRs for greater evolvability, conduct collaborative refactoring workshops, and generate a certifying action plan that boosts your organization's technical maturity.

Module 5Advanced ADR: Scalability and Governance (Multi-Team, Superseding ADRs)

Master ADRs for distributed teams with superseding and prioritization strategies, integrate them into frameworks like ARC42 for enterprise governance, simulate a global audit on a complex thread project, deploy best practices for 100+ decisions, and conclude with a presentation of your professional ADR portfolio, ready to showcase your skills in interviews or internally.

Our method

Training quality, guaranteed at every step

Before, during, after: we frame the brief, introduce the trainer, tailor the content and measure impact. You stay in control from kickoff to wrap-up.

Step 1

Rigorous trainer selection

Each trainer is validated on three criteria: hands-on field expertise, proven pedagogy and alignment with your industry.

  • Triple validation: technical, pedagogical, sectoral.
  • Minimum rating 4.8/5 over the last 12 sessions.
Step 2

You meet the trainer beforehand

30-minute video call between you and the selected trainer to validate the fit, adjust content and clear any final doubts.

  • Live briefing on goals and team context.
  • Veto right — we swap the trainer for free if needed.
Step 3

Content tailored to your context

No recycled slides. The syllabus is reworked from your real cases: tools, constraints, vocabulary, ongoing projects.

  • Hands-on cases drawn from your stack and projects.
  • Program co-written then validated by your team.
Step 4

Continuous quality follow-up

Live evaluations, 30/90/180-day check-ins and a consolidation plan. If the impact misses the mark, we rework it.

  • NPS, knowledge quizzes and skills self-assessment.
  • Satisfaction guarantee: fully satisfied or free rework.

A simple promise: you don't pay to discover the trainer on day one. Everything is validated upfront, by you.
