What people are saying
"I walked into the bootcamp with some basic Python syntax and walked out with a much stronger, contextualized grasp of Python, an understanding of common mistakes, the ability to solve basic coding problems, and confidence in my ability to learn more."
Randi S., Edlitera Student
"I wanted to learn Python and be able to process data without being tied and limited by Excel and macros. These classes gave me all the tools to do so and beyond. The materials provided, the engagement of the class by the tutors and their availability to help us were excellent."
Gaston G., Edlitera Student
Frequently Asked Questions
This course is aimed at developers who are already familiar with data-intensive systems and who want to get started with Spark and Structured Streaming and build their first stream processing application.
Absolutely not. Unlike other internet courses, this course is completely live. Your instructor lectures in real time (either on-site, or live on-line) and can answer questions and provide real-time, tailored feedback so you can reach your goals as fast as possible. At Edlitera, we believe nothing beats the experience of learning live from an elite instructor with extensive industry experience.
The course combines lecturing, hands-on exercises to be solved both individually and in pairs, as well as one or two larger projects that require participants to use their newly acquired knowledge to solve real-world problems.
Exercises and projects are chosen to be relevant to the type of problems that your team encounters daily. Our goal is to deliver practical, immediately applicable knowledge, and to empower your team to hit the ground running after each training. Our instructors can teach this course on site at your offices or live online.
Of course! While we do offer a standard version of this course, we can also work with you to tailor the content such that it fits your team's priorities perfectly.
