The Terraform course is designed to teach learners how to automate infrastructure management through Infrastructure as Code (IaC). By covering Terraform’s core concepts, configuration language, resource provisioning, and cloud integrations, this course provides learners with the skills needed to efficiently manage and scale cloud infrastructure. The hands-on training ensures that learners can write, plan, and apply infrastructure code for real-world cloud environments.

Training Flow Points

• Requirement Gathering & Training Need Analysis (TNA)

  • Assess the organization’s needs for using Terraform (e.g., cloud automation, multi-cloud provisioning).

  • Identify learners' experience levels with IaC, cloud services, and CI/CD.

  • Define specific goals such as automating infrastructure, managing resources across multiple cloud providers, and using Terraform in CI/CD workflows.

• Curriculum Finalization + Agenda Approval

  • Key topics include:

    • Introduction to Terraform and IaC principles

    • Setting up Terraform CLI and configuring cloud providers (AWS, Azure, GCP)

    • Writing and structuring Terraform configuration files

    • Terraform state management, backends, and remote state

    • Working with variables, outputs, and modules

    • Managing infrastructure with Terraform commands (e.g., plan, apply, destroy)

    • Advanced features like workspaces, remote backends, and Terraform Cloud

  • Finalize the curriculum and obtain approval from stakeholders.

• Environment Setup (Labs, Tools, Accounts)

  • Set up the Terraform CLI and configure cloud provider access (AWS, Azure, or GCP).

  • Provide access to cloud environments for hands-on practice.

  • Prepare sample infrastructure projects and repositories for exercises.

• Content Preparation (Slides, Demos, Code, Exercises)

  • Create slides to explain Terraform concepts, best practices, and workflows.

  • Develop live demos to demonstrate Terraform code, configurations, and integrations with cloud providers.

  • Prepare hands-on exercises such as provisioning cloud resources, writing reusable modules, and managing Terraform state.

  • Provide Terraform configuration samples and practice scripts.

• Delivery of Training (Live Sessions / Workshops)

  • Conduct live sessions covering theoretical and practical Terraform topics.

  • Facilitate workshops for learners to apply Terraform to real-world cloud infrastructure scenarios (e.g., provisioning compute instances, setting up networking).

  • Encourage active participation, discussions, and Q&A during hands-on sessions.

• Daily Recap + Assignments + Lab Reviews

  • Summarize key concepts covered in each session and review assignments.

  • Assign tasks for learners to practice Terraform features like managing resources, writing modules, and using state files.

  • Review lab exercises in subsequent sessions, offering feedback and resolving challenges.

• Assessment / Quiz / Project Submission

  • Conduct quizzes to assess learners' understanding of Terraform concepts and practices.

  • Assign a final project where learners create and deploy infrastructure using Terraform.

  • Provide feedback on project submissions, focusing on code organization, module reuse, and best practices.

• Feedback Collection

  • Collect feedback from learners on course content, delivery, and pacing after each session.

  • Use surveys to assess learners' satisfaction and identify areas for improvement.

  • Adjust the course based on feedback to improve future sessions.

• Post-Training Support (Q&A, Slack/Telegram Group)

  • Offer ongoing support through Q&A channels (e.g., Slack, Telegram) for learners to discuss challenges and share experiences.

  • Provide additional resources like Terraform documentation, tutorials, and community links to help learners continue learning.

• Training Report Submission to Corporate Client

  • Submit a detailed training report summarizing the course objectives, learner progress, feedback, and key takeaways.

  • Include recommendations for advanced topics or further training on related Terraform features and cloud-native tools.
