Obtaining Docker certification

Docker is an extremely powerful tool for running and managing containers. Currently, Docker is the industry-leading container runtime platform and offers a colossal number of features revolving around container management, plus orchestration.

This live course serves as preparation for learners who seek to pass the Docker Certified Associate certification exam offered by Docker. Ultimately, the certification exam aims to validate one’s skills as a Docker practitioner. In this course, we will dissect both the concepts and objectives needed to use Docker effectively.
