Why this program matters

  • Without mastery of Serilog for professional logging in .NET applications, your logs stay disorganized and turn debugging into a time-consuming nightmare.

  • 75 % of production incidents in .NET teams stem from inadequate logs, generating on average 40 000 € in annual losses from downtime and wasted debugging hours.

  • Your company faces critical security breaches and loss of competitiveness, while architects and project leads see their careers stalled by unfavorable audits.

  • Every month without reliable structured logs, technical debt accumulates and threatens the scalability of your projects.

Program

Serilog curriculum: 3 modules over 3 days

Module 1 : Logging Fundamentals and Serilog Introduction

Overview of logging practices. Common issues in .NET. Serilog philosophy vs. traditional systems. Installation and first logs. Basic configuration via code and files. Structured logging concepts.

Module 2 : Advanced Configuration, Enrichment, and Sinks

Advanced configuration uses (appsettings.json, runtime configuration). Adding and customizing enrichers. Log context handling (static, dynamic, scoped). Exploring sinks (files, databases, Seq, cloud, email, etc.). Implementing log rotation and retention strategies.

Module 3 : Structured Logging and Exploitation: Best Practices, Security, and Monitoring

Structuring events: custom properties, JSON logs, inter-service correlation. Securing logs: handling sensitive data, GDPR, encryption. Performance, volume management, advanced filtering by environment. Integration with third-party platforms (ELK, Grafana, Splunk, Azure Monitor). Implementation on a complete .NET application: practical workshops, real-time analysis, debugging, monitoring dashboards.

How Serilog skills are assessed

  • Final multiple-choice quiz covering all concepts addressed
  • Practical case study to be completed in pairs (complete logging setup on a microservice with structured logs forwarded to a monitoring platform)

How the Serilog course is taught

  • Illustrated presentations with industrial experience feedback
  • Numerous guided hands-on exercises (code, refactoring, configuration)
  • Access to a pedagogical GitHub repository with exercises and best practices

Our method

How Learni guarantees the quality of your Serilog 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.
