Learning objectives

  • Optimize memory performance with advanced techniques
  • Develop robust drivers and kernels
  • Manage interrupts and low-level multithreading
  • Debug critical code with inline assembly
  • Implement secure real-time algorithms
  • Master C11/C18 standards for embedded systems
  • Produce production-deployable deliverables

The Learni story

Founded by passionate learning and innovation experts, Learni's mission is to make professional training accessible to everyone, anywhere in the world. Our team operates in major hubs — London, New York, Boston — and internationally, to support talents and organizations in upskilling.

Don't let this gap widen

Why this program matters

  • Without expert mastery of low-level C, 70% of system devs suffer costly memory crashes, losing up to 40% CPU perf on embedded.

  • Imagine: a poorly optimized driver freezes an IoT factory, billing 50k€/h downtime.

  • Undebugged kernel bugs expose to zero-day vulnerabilities, like WannaCry's 120M impacts.

  • Lose contracts to smoother competitors.

  • In 2023, 65% of critical vulnerabilities came from mismanaged C (CVE stats).

  • Risk obsolescence: without vectorization, your algos lag, clients flee to Rust.

  • Expert training = zero downtime, +500% perf ROI.

Program

Module 1Advanced Pointers and Memory Management: Dynamic allocation, custom garbage (GCC, Valgrind)

Dive into the intricacies of memory with GCC and Valgrind, manipulate complex structures, implement a custom allocator on real embedded cases, optimize leaks through practical exercises, produce a performance analysis report, gain speed and robustness for your critical projects.

Module 2Multithreading and Synchronization: POSIX threads, atomic locks (pthreads, atomic)

Build ultra-high-performance multi-core applications with pthreads and atomic, simulate concurrent scenarios on Linux, debug deadlocks with GDB, test scalability on concrete IoT cases, deliver a thread-safe prototype, transform your code into parallel powerhouses.

Module 3Inline Assembly and Optimization: CPU intrinsics, vectorization (x86/ARM GCC)

Merge C and assembly for extreme performance with GCC inline, vectorize via SIMD intrinsics on x86/ARM, benchmark critical loops, apply to real-time algorithms, generate optimized -O3 binaries, leave with tools to boost your embedded systems by 300%.

Module 4Kernel and Driver Development: Linux modules, interrupts (kernel headers)

Dive into the heart of the Linux kernel, code loadable modules and IRQ drivers, manage custom syscalls through simulated exercises, test in QEMU VM, secure against overflows, produce a functional driver, become the indispensable expert for industrial embedded.

Module 5Security and Deployment: Hardening, fuzzing, containers (ASan, AFL, Docker)

Harden your C binaries with ASan and AFL fuzzing, implement ROP mitigations, containerize with Docker for production, audit real vulnerabilities, deploy a certified final project, leave ready to conquer secure critical environments.

Evaluation method

  • Daily technical quizzes
  • Final kernel/driver project
  • Expert code reviews
  • Performance benchmarks

Learning method

  • 90% hands-on with real cases
  • Pro tools: GCC, GDB, Valgrind
  • Embedded VM simulations

Methods, materials and delivery

The Training C - Master Low-Level Programming for Critical Systems program is delivered onsite or remote (blended-learning, e-learning, virtual classroom, remote presence). At Learni, an industry-certified training organization, every program is built to maximize skills acquisition regardless of the chosen format.

The trainer alternates between demonstrative, interrogative and active methods (through hands-on labs and/or scenarios). This pedagogical approach guarantees concrete learning that's immediately applicable at work.

Equipment required

For the smooth delivery of the Training C - Master Low-Level Programming for Critical Systems program, the following equipment is required:

  • Mac or PC computers, high-speed fiber internet, whiteboard or flipchart, projector or interactive touch screen (for remote sessions)
  • Training environments installed on workstations or accessible online
  • Course materials, hands-on exercises and complementary resources
  • Post-training access to materials and educational resources

For intra-company training on a site outside Learni, the client commits to providing all required teaching materials (computers, internet, etc.) for the smooth delivery of the program in line with the prerequisites in the communicated program.

* contact us for remote delivery feasibility** ratio varies depending on the program

Skills assessment methods

Assessment of skills acquired during the Training C - Master Low-Level Programming for Critical Systems program is performed through:

  • During training: case studies, hands-on labs and professional scenarios
  • End of training: self-assessment questionnaire and skills evaluation by the trainer
  • After training: completion certificate detailing acquired skills

Program accessibility

Learni is committed to making its programs accessible. All our programs are accessible to people with disabilities. Our teams are available to adapt the pedagogical methods to your specific needs. Please contact us for any adjustment request.

Enrollment terms and lead times

Learni programs are available inter-company and intra-company, onsite or remote. Enrollments are possible up to 48 business hours before the program starts. Our programs are eligible for corporate funding paths. Contact us to discuss your training project and funding options.

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.
