Why this program matters

  • Without Ansible, you waste 15-20 hours per week on tedious manual configurations, multiplying human errors that cause 30% downtime on your critical servers according to Gartner.

  • Imagine deployments that drag on for days, teams frustrated by repetitive tasks, and costs spiking 40% due to lack of automation.

  • Avoidable outages like the 2017 British Airways incident (cost: 100M€) highlight the risks.

  • Our introductory training steers you clear of these traps, making you autonomous in 35h so you can boost IT productivity by 50% as soon as you return to the office.

Program

Ansible curriculum: 5 modules over 5 days

Module 1 : Introduction to Ansible: Principles and Installation (Basic Tools, Live Demos)

Dive into the world of Ansible with clear explanations of its agentless architecture, install the tool via pip or package manager on Linux VMs, explore the ansible CLI for your first ad-hoc tests like pinging remote hosts, perform guided exercises on YAML inventory, and produce a functional configuration file ready to use, all while enjoying an interactive pace that motivates you to experiment immediately.

Module 2 : Basic Playbooks: Syntax and Simple Tasks (YAML, Core Modules)

Master writing YAML playbooks using ready templates, execute tasks like package installation via apt/yum with the package module, manage files and services via handlers, test on simulated multi-host environments, troubleshoot common errors in real-time during practical workshops, and validate your first complete automations that save you hours from the next day.

Module 3 : Advanced Management: Variables, Facts, and Conditions (Dynamic Inventory)

Deepen your knowledge with host/group variables and automatically collected Ansible facts, integrate if/when conditions for intelligent playbooks, structure dynamic inventory via INI or YAML scripts, apply loops and Jinja2 templates to concrete cases like deploying customized configs, iterate through collaborative exercises, and deploy a robust playbook that adapts to your real servers.

Module 4 : Modules and Roles: Reusability and Best Practices (Ansible Galaxy)

Explore 20+ key modules like file, user, copy for precise tasks, structure your first roles with tasks/handlers/vars, import roles from Ansible Galaxy to accelerate workflows, customize roles for typical DevOps scenarios, test in groups on virtual labs, and optimize your automations for immediate scalability that boosts your efficiency.

Module 5 : Final Projects and Troubleshooting: Secure Deployments (Security, Testing)

Synthesize by completing a full infrastructure automation project like a LAMP deployment, integrate vault to encrypt secrets, debug with verbose/debug and ansible-lint, simulate production environments with Vault and tags, present your final deliverable in a pitch, and leave with a personal portfolio of Ansible automations ready for your professional daily use.

Our method

How Learni guarantees the quality of your Ansible training

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.
