Our social commitment

A school kit donated to a child for every training

To fight inequalities in access to education, Learni donates a complete school kit to a child in need for every training booked. You build your skills, a child heads back to school.

  • Backpack, notebooks and essential supplies
  • Distributed through our partner charities
  • Included, at no extra cost to you

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 expert mastery of Linkerd, your Kubernetes clusters risk 25% unplanned downtime due to invisible network failures, leading to revenue losses estimated at 50k€/day for a scale-up SME.

  • mTLS configuration errors expose you to security breaches, with 40% of service mesh incidents undetected in real-time according to CNCF.

  • Miss traffic optimization, and your infra costs explode by 30% through overprovisioning.

  • Train to avoid these pitfalls, secure 99.99% availability, and scale confidently in production.

Program

Module 1Linkerd Deployment and Configuration: expert installation, proxies and policies (Kubernetes, Helm, CLI).

Dive into advanced Linkerd installation on a dedicated Kubernetes cluster, configure sidecar proxies via Helm and CLI, test mTLS on real microservices, deploy traffic policies with retry and circuit breaker, perform hands-on exercises to validate resilience, produce an operational compliance report, and exchange on your real-world cases for immediate application.

Module 2Linkerd Observability and Optimization: monitoring, troubleshooting, tuning (Prometheus, Grafana, debug).

Explore the Linkerd dashboard and integrate Prometheus/Grafana to analyze real-time metrics, diagnose network failures using advanced debug tools, optimize performance with golden signals, simulate critical loads on production use cases, generate custom alerts, and conclude with a deliverable project integrating Linkerd into your CI/CD pipeline, boosting your expertise for zero-downtime deployments.

Evaluation method

  • Practical evaluations through exercises and real cases.
  • Final interactive quiz on troubleshooting.
  • Self-assessment via lab reports.

Learning method

  • 70% hands-on on live Kubernetes clusters.
  • 20% peer experience sharing.
  • 10% theory applied to Linkerd tools.

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.
