Why this program matters

  • Companies that fail to master AWS Glue waste valuable time on manual ETL pipelines.

  • According to Gartner, 65 % of data projects fail due to lack of governance and automation.

  • This lag creates excess storage costs and delays in time-to-market.

  • Data architects and engineers see their employability drop against competitors who have mastered these skills.

  • Acting now prevents these concrete risks and secures your professional standing.

Program

AWS Glue curriculum: 5 modules over 5 days

Module 1 : Theme: AWS Glue Architecture and Crawlers (AWS Console, IAM, S3, Automated Crawlers)

Participants explore the serverless architecture of AWS Glue and configure intelligent crawlers to catalog heterogeneous data. They use the AWS console, define precise IAM roles, and connect S3 buckets. Practical exercises on real datasets enable generation of a complete data catalog ready for advanced ETL transformations.

Module 2 : Theme: Spark Jobs and AWS Glue Transformations (PySpark, Custom Scripts, Visual ETL)

The day focuses on writing and optimizing Spark jobs with AWS Glue. Learners develop complex PySpark scripts, leverage the visual editor, and integrate business transformations. Real enterprise cases illustrate large-scale data cleaning, normalization, and enrichment with functional pipeline deliverables.

Module 3 : Theme: AWS Glue Integration and Orchestration (Lambda, Step Functions, EventBridge)

Professionals learn to orchestrate Glue workflows with Lambda and Step Functions. They configure EventBridge triggers, manage dependencies, and automate executions. Hands-on workshops on multi-service scenarios produce complete, monitored pipelines ready for production in an enterprise environment.

Module 4 : Theme: AWS Glue Security and Governance (Lake Formation, Encryption, Audits)

This session deepens data security with AWS Glue and Lake Formation. Participants implement encryption, fine-grained access controls, and audits. Exercises on sensitive data enable creation of compliant environments, with deliverables including governance policies and audit reports.

Module 5 : Theme: AWS Glue Optimization and Advanced Projects (Performance Tuning, Monitoring, Real Case)

The final day focuses on cost and performance optimization of Glue jobs. Learners analyze metrics, adjust DPU configurations, and deploy a complete final project. Code reviews and certifying pipeline presentations conclude the training with ready-to-use enterprise deliverables.

How AWS Glue skills are assessed

Our method

How Learni guarantees the quality of your AWS Glue 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.
