Why this program matters

Without mastery of GitHub, 65% of development teams lose more than 20 hours per week on manual code conflicts and tedious merges.
Projects without collaborative versioning generate 40% more errors, costing the company an average of 15 000€ per major incident.
In 2024, 82% of IT job postings require GitHub, excluding novice profiles and blocking career transitions.
Every delay widens the competitive gap, exposes teams to irrecoverable data losses, and compromises the scalability of professional deliverables.

Program

Module 1GitHub Fundamentals: Interface Discovery and Repository Creation (web, CLI, first commits)

Dive into the GitHub universe by installing Git and creating your first professional account, explore the intuitive web interface to initiate a personal repository, perform your first local commits and synchronized pushes, practice on concrete business cases like a simple website project, produce a clear version history with descriptive messages, and receive immediate feedback from the trainer to consolidate your skills from the first session.

Module 2GitHub Branches: Managing Collaborative Workflows (creation, merge, conflict resolution)

Learn to create dedicated branches to isolate your developments on GitHub, simulate team contributions by forking public repositories, merge changes via the web interface with visual previews, resolve simple conflicts on real code files, apply best practices for scalable professional projects, and end with a collaborative refactoring exercise that demonstrates GitHub's power to boost productivity in the enterprise.

Module 3GitHub Pull Requests: Code Review and Approvals (reviews, comments, protections)

Master GitHub pull requests for structured and certified code reviews, write precise descriptions with automated checklists, add inline comments on visual diffs, configure protection rules for main branches, test on an ongoing collaborative web application project, and generate activity reports that highlight your professional skills to recruiters and managers.

Module 4Advanced GitHub Collaboration: Forks, Issues, and Projects (Kanban boards, assignments)

Explore GitHub forks to contribute to professional open source projects, manage issues with labels and milestones to track team tasks, set up integrated Kanban project boards to visualize progress, assign responsibilities and notify collaborators in real time, apply these tools to real business cases like a mobile app deployment, and produce a ready-to-use board for your own initiatives.

Module 5GitHub Automation: Actions and Security (CI/CD workflows, secrets, deployments)

Discover GitHub Actions to automate tests and deployments in practical beginner training, create your first simple YAML workflows for CI/CD on private repositories, manage secrets and tokens for professional security, deploy a static application to GitHub Pages, optimize for enterprise environments with integrated monitoring, and finalize with a complete deliverable project that certifies your new skills in collaborative versioning.

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.
