Education

OpenVox Training

Three instructor-led, four-day classes that take a team from its first agent to designing and migrating a production estate. Roughly half of every class is hands-on lab time.

🎓

OpenVox User

Install an agent, write safe manifests, join a server, read a report and fix a failed run. 5–12 students.

🧪

OpenVox Journeyman

Modules, testing, Hiera 5, roles and profiles, the control repo and r10k, and OpenBolt. 5–10 students.

🏗️

OpenVox Architect

Topology and sizing, compilers and the CA, OpenVoxDB, DR and multi-site, ending in a scenario studio. 5–8 students.

Class sizes get smaller at each level because there is more hands-on and scenario work. We prefer to teach on-site: regional public classes open to people from many companies, or a private class at your location (you cover instructor travel). Live remote is also available.

Regional public classes: User $2,500, Journeyman $2,500, Architect $2,750 per student, minimum 5 students. Private corporate class: $16,500 per class week, minimum 5 students, plus instructor travel. Each class awards a certificate of completion.
