Moving workloads to the cloud does not by itself make an organisation faster or cheaper. Many teams end up with slow release cycles, sprawling environments, surprise invoices and developers waiting on tickets. Ten days of structured, lab-based work show engineers and technology leaders how to join cloud architecture, DevOps practice, financial accountability and platform thinking into one operating model.
The first week builds foundations: cloud architecture on AWS, Azure or Google Cloud, networking and identity, Git workflows, CI/CD pipelines, containers and infrastructure as code with Terraform. The second week goes deeper into Kubernetes and GitOps, observability and site reliability engineering, DevSecOps, FinOps tagging, showback, rightsizing and commitments, and the design of internal developer platforms with golden paths and self-service. You finish with an integrated project that delivers a service through an automated pipeline onto a governed, cost-aware platform. The programme suits cloud and DevOps engineers, system administrators, software developers, solution architects, IT managers, finance and procurement partners and digital transformation leads in banks, telecoms, government and technology firms. Classroom, online and in-house delivery are offered, with a CPD-accredited Certificate of Completion.
Digital transformation succeeds or fails in how quickly and safely an organisation can change its software and services. Cloud platforms offer almost unlimited capacity, but they also multiply choices, security exposure and cost. Teams that adopt tools without a shared operating model typically see inconsistent environments, manual releases, alert fatigue and cloud bills that nobody can explain. Boards now expect technology investment to show measurable gains in delivery speed, reliability and unit cost.
This ten-day programme treats cloud, DevOps, FinOps and platform engineering as parts of a single capability. Participants begin with cloud foundations and landing zone design, then automate everything they can: source control, builds, tests, deployments and infrastructure provisioning. Container orchestration with Kubernetes, GitOps delivery, monitoring, logging and tracing follow, along with reliability practices such as service level objectives, incident response and chaos testing. Security is embedded through policy as code, secrets management and supply chain controls. In parallel, FinOps sessions teach participants to allocate cost, forecast spend, optimise resources and build a culture of cost ownership between engineering and finance.
The final block shows how platform engineering ties these practices together, offering product teams paved roads, templates and self-service capabilities. Throughout, learning is by doing: each participant builds, breaks, fixes and measures a working environment, and ends by presenting a transformation roadmap for their own organisation.
After the ten days, participants will be able to:
