We recently partnered with Appsembler to deliver an enhanced version of Arrikto Academy. Appsembler offers a hosted enterprise solution of the OSS Open edX Learning Management System, which serves as the education platform for the Arrikto community and future technologies in the Kubeflow ecosystem. Appsembler allows Arrikto to mature our course offerings to provide a more robust, interactive and user-friendly education experience. Using Appsembler, we will provide media-rich courses with challenges and hands-on product sandboxes for our developer community to practice and grow their skills with the Kubeflow ecosystem. We have four courses live and are rapidly adding more.
Some improvements we are really excited about are listed below:
- Personalized user dashboardÂ
- Certificates that can be shared
- Course progress tracking and saving
- Improved interactivity, readability, usability and speed
For more information on our skills based approach to education please read this blog: Pioneering Kubeflow Skills Based Education.
Shareable Certificates
Completing a course provides you access to an HTML certificate that you can now host on LinkedIn or other mediums to showcase your accomplishments. Certificates highlight the user, the course, and the date of completion:
Personalized User Dashboard
Once logged-in, each user will be given a personalized dashboard where they can customize their account and profile. Within the dashboard, users can view and search their active courses, resume in-progress courses, and access certificates.
Course Progress Tracking and Saving
The courses hosted in Appsembler are truly on-demand, meaning that once you are logged in, you can start-and-stop a course with all your progress saved. You can easily pick up where you left off and return to incomplete sections.
