Squads contribute to well-known CNCF projects, such as
the contributor's toolkit
beginner-friendly, with your mentor
on your own laptop
docs, tests or code, as a squad
mentor checks it first

Common questions
Yes. We start from zero, with how apps and the internet work. Most of DevOps is understanding how things connect and following clues. We teach you both, step by step.
Yes. Live classes are on Sat & Sun evenings and the rest fits around your timetable. Any branch, any year. If exams get in the way, you can move to the next batch.
A laptop and an internet connection. The practice labs open in your browser, so you don't need a powerful laptop, there's nothing to install, and there's no cloud bill.
Yes, all classes are in English, explained simply. Every class is recorded, so you can pause and rewatch anything, any time, for life.
AI changes the job. Companies still need people who can check and fix what AI makes before it reaches customers. That's exactly what we train you to do, every week.
No, and nobody honest does. We help you build proof, prepare for interviews, and refer you when you're ready.
Yes. You can reserve your seat with ₹5,000, which is refundable and counts toward your fee. You can also pay with card EMI, about ₹2,500 a month over 12 months. Your bank may add interest.
Ask within the first week and you get a full refund. The ₹5,000 reservation is refundable too.
