The Challenge
The Need for a Comprehensive DevOps Certification Program
To meet the evolving demands of the digital transformation trend and the DevOps movement, Capgemini Academy faced a challenge with their existing DevOps training program.
I think it’s still a growth market.
Pieter De Beijer – Professional Agile Trainer, Capgemini Academy
While they initially developed a half-day DevOps Awareness course, the increasing growth and complexity of DevOps necessitated a more comprehensive training program. However, developing such a program in-house would have entailed significant time and financial investments.
We have seen that, when there is a certification exam connected to a training course, learners are more able and willing to take that course.

To meet this demand efficiently and cost-effectively, they sought a strategic partnership that would offer ready-made training and certification programs.
The Solution
Partnering with DASA for Ready-Made Training and Certification
Recognizing the need for a comprehensive DevOps certification program, Capgemini Academy formed a partnership with DASA. By leveraging DASA’s expertise in DevOps training, Capgemini Academy gained access to well-developed course content and certification opportunities.
What I like about DASA is that they support us as trainers.

Besides the course content, DASA also provides ongoing support to trainers. DASA also offers trainers the opportunity to recertify whenever a new version of a course is released—allowing them to stay up-to-date and relevant in the rapidly evolving technology landscape.
This collaborative approach highlights the shared commitment to delivering high-quality learning experiences.
The Results
DASA is now more well known, and that’s led also to more participants in our training courses.

Capgemini Academy and DASA have formed a strategic partnership to provide comprehensive DevOps training and certification programs.
People are drawn to the external certification offered by DASA. Additionally, the ability to offer industry-recognized certification has enhanced Capgemini’s appeal as an employer. As De Beijer explained, many individuals consider internal training opportunities a significant factor when choosing an employer.
Furthermore, DASA’s commitment to regularly updating course materials ensures that the training remains relevant and current. De Beijer highlighted this aspect, noting that DASA has been proactive in evolving their course materials in line with the constant evolution of DevOps, including the emergence of new technologies and ways of working.
DASA is constantly improving because DevOps itself is constantly evolving.
