GitLab with Git Basics

This entry-point provides a hands-on training experience which equips team members, engineers, developers and operations staff with the fundamental concepts and tooling basics to get up and running with GitLab in enterprise

Overview

This class is designed to provide users with an introduction to GitLab. It starts with an overview of GitLab so you can learn the basics about what GitLab does and why DevOps teams use it. Then it dives into Git, the version control system used by GitLab for source code management (SCM). You'll learn and practice fundamental Git concepts and commands. Throughout the course flow, we'll provide demos and hands-on practice with the foundational processes and tasks that DevOps teams use in GitLab, such as committing changes, creating branches and merge requests, using a CI/CD pipeline, and accessing security scanning.

GitLab with Git Basics covers some features that are available in all three GitLab pricing tiers (Free, Premium, and Ultimate), some features that are only available in Premium and Ultimate, and a small number of features that are only available in Ultimate.

New certification! Starting in May 2020, we're including class participant access to our new GitLab Certified Associate certification assessments. To earn certification, GitLab with Git Basics Training participants must receive a passing score on both a written assessment and a lab assessment evaluated by a GitLab Professional Services Engineer.
