Certified DevOps® Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) Practitioner Training

  • Learn via: Classroom
  • Duration: 3 Days
  • Level: Expert
  • Price: From €1,857+VAT

The Certified SRE Practitioner course is an advanced, hands-on training designed for experienced Site Reliability Engineers (SREs) and DevOps professionals who aim to scale reliability engineering practices across complex systems and enterprises.

Building on the SRE Foundation principles, this course deepens participants’ understanding of Service Level Objectives (SLOs), observability, incident response, chaos engineering, and automation. Through case studies, interactive exercises, and real-world simulations, learners gain practical skills to build resilient, high-availability systems that support business-critical services.

This certification enables professionals to integrate SRE with DevOps, leading to improved system reliability, faster incident recovery, and continuous service excellence.


Important Information:
This course is an official program accredited by PeopleCert and is offered only together with the corresponding certification exam. The course fee includes the exam fee.
Participants can take the certification exam online through PeopleCert’s examination system and earn an internationally recognized certificate.
This practice is mandatory to ensure compliance with PeopleCert’s quality standards and accreditation guidelines.
