# netherlands
GitLab training in Netherlands is taken mostly by developers responsible for their own pipeline and DevOps engineers standardising CI across projects. Sessions run live online in CET (UTC+1), or onsite at your office — there is no Netherlands classroom. Teams here often pair it with our AIOps and Ansible training, and a corporate batch can cover more than one in a single engagement. The Netherlands is an unusual market because so much of the region's network traffic physically passes through it. AMS-IX and the Amsterdam data-centre cluster mean Dutch teams think about egress, peering and cross-region replication earlier than teams elsewhere in Europe, and questions that are academic in other cohorts are operational here. The second factor is regulatory. Dutch financial services, health and public sector organisations work to a stricter reading of data residency than most, and DORA has sharpened it further for anyone in scope. Engineers here need to evidence where data physically sits, who can reach it and what the audit trail looks like — so key custody, private connectivity and log retention get materially more attention in a Netherlands batch. Scheduling is the practical constraint. Our instructors teach from IST, four and a half hours ahead of CET in winter. The weekday cohort lands mid-afternoon CET, which most Dutch teams prefer; the weekend cohort starts early. Corporate batches are normally scheduled entirely inside CET business hours by arrangement.
We do not run a classroom in Netherlands. Batches here are live online, or onsite at your office for corporate cohorts.
Our two classrooms are in Bengaluru and Hyderabad.
# the subject
GitLab combines source control, CI/CD, a container registry, package registries, issue tracking and security scanning in one application. Pipelines are defined in a .gitlab-ci.yml in the repository; runners execute jobs; stages and needs control ordering and parallelism. The integration is the point. Because the pipeline, the registry and the merge request are in one system, you can gate a merge on a scan result or an environment deployment without wiring three tools together — but it also means configuration decisions have wider blast radius than they would elsewhere.
Consolidation onto integrated platforms is a strong trend, driven partly by cost and partly by the difficulty of proving a supply chain across many tools. Engineers who can design GitLab pipelines properly — reusable, parallel, with sensible artefact and cache handling — are in demand as organisations migrate onto it.

# questions
No. We do not have a training centre in Netherlands, and we would rather say so than let you plan a commute. Batches here run live online, or onsite at your own office for corporate cohorts. Our two classrooms are in Bengaluru and Hyderabad.
Our instructors teach from India, so sessions are converted into CET (UTC+1) on the batch table above rather than quoted in IST. The weekday cohort lands more conveniently for Netherlands than the weekend one, and every session is recorded the same day. For a corporate batch we schedule entirely inside CET (UTC+1) working hours instead.
The curriculum is the same everywhere — it is the same course, and pretending otherwise would be dishonest. What changes for Netherlands is delivery: the batch times are set for CET (UTC+1), fees are shown in EUR, and delivery is live online or onsite at your office rather than in a classroom. The examples our instructors reach for also tend to follow what Netherlands teams actually run.
No, and that is deliberate. You build the labs on your own free-tier account, and we walk through the setup and the cost guardrails in week one. A sandbox that expires when the course ends teaches you nothing you keep; your own environment does.
Every session is recorded and available in the LMS the same day, and you keep access for a year. You can also sit the missed session again with the next cohort at no extra cost.
Comfortable with Git; Understanding of how your project builds and tests; A GitLab account; the free tier is enough. If you are unsure whether you are ready, tell us what you work on now and we will give you a straight answer rather than a sales one.
You get an industry-recognised DevOpsSchool certificate after the three-hour open-book exam. Most people find the capstone repositories carry more weight in an interview than the certificate itself, which is why the labs are built to be shown.
Yes. We build the agenda from your stack after a discovery call and drop anything your team already runs in production. Teams of 8 to 30 work best; larger groups split into parallel batches.
If we cancel or postpone a cohort and you decline the rescheduled session, you get a full refund within 15 days. We do not offer a general money-back guarantee, and taxes and gateway fees are not refunded.
No. The fee is charged once at enrolment. Where we show a monthly figure it is arithmetic to help you size the cost against a budget, not a payment plan.
