Why This Path Exists

Most people trying to break into DevOps start with a certification and end up with a certificate that says they can define a term, not run a system. This path exists for the opposite reason. You'll spend your time in a terminal, not a slide deck: provisioning real Linux servers, tracing a request across a real network, and packaging an application the way a production team would. By the end, “it's a networking issue” or “just restart the pod” won't be things you repeat. They'll be things you can actually diagnose. This is the on-ramp into cloud and infrastructure engineering, built for people serious enough to put in the reps.

What You'll Learn

  1. 1

    Linux Internals & CLI Mastery

    Get fluent at the command line: the filesystem hierarchy, permissions and ownership, process management, and the shell scripting patterns every production engineer reaches for daily.

  2. 2

    Network Architecture Basics

    DNS resolution, load balancing, firewalls, and the full request path: the fundamentals that make "it's a networking issue" an actual diagnosis, not a shrug.

  3. 3

    GitOps & Version Strategy

    Move beyond add, commit, push. Learn branching strategy, pull-request discipline, and how Git state, not a person clicking deploy, drives what runs in production.

  4. 4

    Containerization Primitives

    Package and run applications with Docker, and understand exactly what a container is (and isn't) at the OS level, not just the CLI commands.

  5. 5

    Cloud Native Fundamentals

    Understand how AWS and Azure actually work under the hood: compute, storage, networking, and identity, not just the console screens.

  6. 6

    Monitoring & Logging Fundamentals

    Read logs and metrics like an engineer, not a spectator. Learn to tell the difference between a system that's degraded and one that's about to page someone.

  7. 7

    Advanced Shell Scripting & Automation

    Automate the boring parts: scripts that provision, monitor, and recover systems without you babysitting them at 2 a.m.

Who This Is For

Aspiring cloud and DevOps engineers, IT support staff ready to move into infrastructure roles, and computer science students who want the production experience their degree didn't give them. You should be comfortable writing and reading code. You don't need prior infrastructure experience.

What's Included

  • Hands-on labs in real cloud environments, not simulations
  • Project reviews from practising DevOps engineers
  • Access to the Teleios engineering community
  • Career-readiness fundamentals: portfolio and resume review

Where This Leads

Junior DevOps and Cloud Engineer roles. Graduates who perform strongly are considered for the Advanced DevOps Cohort, though completing Foundation is one route in, not the only one.

Investment

₦550,000, one-time. Hybrid (self-paced & instructor-led), open enrollment: no waitlist, no application.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a cloud account already?

No. We'll walk you through setting up free-tier AWS/Azure accounts as part of the course itself.

Do I need prior cloud experience?

No, but you should be comfortable writing and working with code before you start.

Is this the same as the Advanced Cohort?

No. Foundation builds your fundamentals; the Advanced Cohort is a separate, more selective program focused on operating production-scale systems.

Can I join the Advanced Cohort without completing Foundation?

Yes. Foundation is one route in, not a prerequisite. Intermediate and experienced engineers can apply directly.

Is Foundation beginner-friendly?

Yes, for engineers who already have some programming comfort. You don't need to be a cloud expert going in, but you do need to be ready to do hands-on technical work.

What happens after the 6 months end?

You keep access to the curriculum and materials afterward for a small monthly fee, so you can revisit content at your own pace even after the cohort concludes.
