The capstone
You'll ship one real system end to end: a containerized app, delivered through a CI/CD pipeline, deployed on Kubernetes, with infrastructure defined in Terraform on AWS, fully monitored and logged, secrets managed, documented in a public repo — and presented on Demo Day. Pass it (70+ points) and you earn your certificate.

Questions
Do I need prior experience?
No. The program starts at Linux fundamentals and builds up. You need commitment (8–10 hrs/week), a laptop, and stable-enough internet for weekly calls.
How much time per week?
About 8–10 hours: two live sessions plus self-paced lessons and a weekly project.
What if I miss a live session?
Every session is recorded and posted, so a missed session never blocks your progress.
How does the deposit work?
A 10,000 FCFA commitment deposit secures your seat. It's applied to your final month, so it's not an extra charge — just the last month paid upfront. It's non-refundable after the 7-day cooling-off window.
Can I get a refund?
Full refund (including deposit) within the first 7 days if you haven't accessed paid modules. After that the deposit is forfeited on withdrawal.
Do I get a certificate?
Yes — issued on completion of the capstone (70+ points), plus badges and a Track Champion badge for finishing the full track.
Ready to claim a seat?
Only 10 spots. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis — the sooner you apply, the better your chances.
