CNCF-hosted Co-located Events North America 2024

They say the best way to learn is by teaching. Back in college, I was the go-to guy for my friends, breaking down complex concepts that helped them ace their exams. Little did I know that those late-night dorm sessions were preparing me for a future course author. Fast-forward to 2024, I co-authored the Mastering Kubernetes Security with Kyverno course for The Linux Foundation. It was my first time creating a cloud native course for students and professionals. In this talk, I’ll share my experience of grappling with my knowledge gaps and shed light on the process of building a course. I’ll also focus on things that I missed and learned along the way—spending countless hours building real-world hands-on examples and refining the text so that everyone can understand it. Join me in this talk to learn how to build a course, strategies for content creation, how to manage imposter syndrome, and how to deliver a great learning experience from a first-time course creator.
