hi everyone, does anybody knows if a "Deploy Workloads with Lakeflow Jobs with Labs" training with labs exists?

I can see this free course "https://customer-academy.databricks.com/learn/courses/1365/deploy-workloads-with-lakeflow-jobs" but is without Labs

thank you

Hello @SAM2698!

The course shared above is a free, self-paced version and does not include labs. If you’d like access to labs, there are generally two options:

  • Enroll in an Instructor-Led Training (ILT) course: Enroll in this version of the course, which includes hands-on labs and provides 7-day access to them.
  • Databricks Academy Labs subscription (Databricks Academy > Subscription Plans > Databricks Academy Labs): A great option for long-term learning, offering access to both the labs and self-paced courses included in the subscription for an entire year.

Hi @SAM2698 ! You’re right—the self-paced, free version of the Deploy Workloads with Lakeflow Jobs course in Databricks Academy is primarily lecture-based (PDF slides/videos) and doesn't include a hosted lab environment.

If you are looking for hands-on labs for Lakeflow Jobs, you generally have three options:

  1. Databricks Academy Labs (Subscription): Databricks offers a specific 'Academy Labs' subscription that provides a guided, hosted environment outside of your own company workspace. You can check if your organization has a subscription or explore individual access here.

  2. Instructor-Led Training (ILT): The paid, instructor-led version of this course ($750 or via Success Credits) does include a dedicated lab environment and hands-on exercises guided by an expert. You can find the schedule for these classes on the Databricks Training Catalog.

  3. Self-Guided Lab (Using your own Workspace): If you have access to a Databricks workspace (or a Free Trial), you can follow the 'Demo' videos within the free course and replicate the steps yourself. Many learners use the Databricks Community Edition or a personal cloud trial to practice the Lakeflow Jobs UI and Task Orchestration features shown in the course.
