# Welcome to Stelligent U



Welcome to the technical side of Stelligent University,

[Stelligent's](https://stelligent.com) onboarding program for engineers. This

repo includes a series of learning modules designed to give cloud engineers

practical experience working with AWS and related technologies.



The goal of this material is to prepare all of our engineers for their first

engagements as Stelligent consultants. Any topic or principal presented here

is part of our technical knowledge baseline: this is what we consider a

"Minimum Viable Engineer". There are a _lot_ of other ideas and technologies

that you'll come across and need to know in your work.  We can't fit it all in,

though, and these are the essentials.



For further information, please see:



* [MVE.md](MVE.md): what we mean by "Minimum Viable Engineer"

* [WORKFLOW.md](WORKFLOW.md): how we suggest you use Stelligent U



## Audience



This is a series of lessons originally written for new Engineers at

Stelligent. The goal of this material is to prepare all of our engineers for

their first engagements as Stelligent engineers. Any topic or principal

presented here is part of our technical knowledge baseline: this is what we

consider a _Minimum Viable Engineer_. There are a _lot_ of other ideas and

technologies that you'll come across and need to know in your career.

We can't fit it all in, though, and these are the essentials.



## Materials



The core of Stelligent U is modules 1-12, the series that makes up our baseline

definition of a Minimum Viable Engineer. Other modules are also available that

provide hands-on experience with tech beyond the baseline. We want to add more

and more to those "continuous learning" modules as time goes by.



You'll find a handful of ways we present each topic. Most of the technical

exercises are labs, where we want you to gain a surface level of exposure to

a variety of AWS services and their most common or compelling features.



Labs within a lesson build on each other. Many lessons require the experience

of previous lessons. Unless you're completely blocked, work through them in

order.



When we provide materials for a lab -- e.g. CloudFormation templates or

policy files -- start with those and add to them as requested.



Some topics also include retrospectives. These aren't always focused so much

on a technical exercise. Our goal here is usually to get you to think more

broadly about the technology at hand.



We also provide further reading for each topic. Find time to explore some of

these materials more deeply. Pursue your curiosity. There are many excellent

resources out there, and we particularly want you to learn more where the topics

match up with your interests.
