Description of this Getting Started with Ansible training Course
Ansible is one of the most widely used automation tools in modern DevOps environments. Thanks to its declarative, agentless approach, it allows you to deploy applications, configure systems and orchestrate complex tasks in a reproducible, secure and easy-to-maintain manner.
This Ansible training course provides you with all the basics you need to master playbook writing, manage inventories, organise your roles and automate production scenarios on your Linux or cloud servers.
Format
Remote (recorded sessions).
GOOD TO KNOW
This training course includes numerous exercises (60% practical) to enhance learning. Each session will take place even if only one person is registered (except in cases of force majeure). A preliminary interview is held between the participant and/or a company representative in order to fully assess the participant’s profile (level, needs, professional context, challenges, etc.).
Assessment : during the training course, the trainer assesses the participants’ progress through multiple-choice questions, role-playing exercises and practical work. Participants receive a certificate of completion at the end of the training course.

By the end, each participant will be able to :
- Understand how Ansible works and its agentless model.
- Write reusable playbooks to automate recurring tasks.
- Manage inventories (static and dynamic) and environment variables.
- Use roles to structure your code and promote maintainability
- Deploy services and applications at scale
- Apply security best practices (Vault, sudo, user management)
Prerequisites of this Getting Started with Ansible training Course
- Basic knowledge of Linux command line
- Basic system administration skills (configuration files, services, packages)roficiency with a text editor and YAML files
- Because each participant has a unique background and expectations, a preliminary interview with our expert allows us to precisely identify their objectives, level and professional challenges.
This enables us to tailor the training content to ensure relevant and personalised learning.
