Unlike traditional relational databases, CockroachDB's distributed architecture requires new approaches to deployment topologies, schema design, performance tuning, monitoring, and operational best practices. CockroachDB delivers global scale, zero-downtime operations, and strong consistency. However, teams often hit a roadblock: the learning curve.
Structured training enables architects, developers, DBAs, and administrators to learn quickly, accelerate time to value, and make the most of CockroachDB’s powerful capabilities. That's why we’re introducing the CockroachDB Training Subscription.
The CockroachDB Training Subscription provides 12 months of unlimited access to training on the entire surface area of CockroachDB for your entire team.
What’s included?
The training subscription provides all-you-can-eat access to the following:
Virtual instructor-led courses (~3 hours each)
A large and growing library of on-demand courses
Over 50 hands-on tutorial labs in guided, interactive environments
Defined learning paths
Professional certification exams, including one free retake per exam
How does it work?
Your subscription includes a specific number of seats agreed upon at purchase. When your subscription begins, you’ll receive onboarding instructions to specify the individuals on your team(s) who should have training subscription access. We’ll invite those individuals to the subscription platform. Once an individual claims their seat they may register for all instructor-led courses of interest and begin taking on-demand courses immediately. They’ll also have access to hands-on labs and certification exams. Seats are transferable if someone leaves your team.
Catalog

Calendar
All instructor-led courses are offered at least twice per month at times that accommodate US, EMEA, and APAC timezones.
