Business Solutions – Open Courses
Open Courses are highly technical, instructor-led classes designed for small cohorts from different companies — and sometimes for individual professionals who self-sponsor. They offer a flexible way to upskill when you don’t have a full internal group ready at the same time.
Delivery is live online or, at times, live at the Edocti HQ. Programs follow predefined agendas and emphasize hands-on practice, peer discussion and expert guidance. Cohorts are capped at 16 participants to keep interaction high and feedback immediate.
What are Open Courses?
Open Courses bring together engineers from multiple organizations for a concise, high-impact learning experience. They run for 1–3 days (full-day format) or as 4-hour sessions over a double number of days — the content remains identical, the pacing adapts to your schedule. Each course follows a clearly defined agenda, with labs, code-along moments and discussion prompts.
- Who attends — developers, architects and technical leaders from IT/Software; self-funded participants welcome.
- Format — live online as default; occasional sessions live at the Edocti HQ.
- Cohort size — up to 16 participants to preserve interaction.
- Focus — deep technical content, pragmatic patterns, and production-grade practices.
- Outcomes — practical skills you can apply immediately, validated through labs and reviews.
Delivery format: Live online (default)
Structure
- Schedule — 1–3 full days or 4h/day across twice as many days.
- Hands-on — guided labs, code-along, troubleshooting and live reviews.
- Collaboration — screen-share, breakout rooms, chat and polls for interactive flow.
- Materials — slides, lab guides, sample code and follow-up references.
Occasionally delivered live at the Edocti HQ; the curriculum and outcomes are identical.
When it makes sense
- Small teams needing a flexible, time-bound solution.
- Targeted upskilling before you commit to a private cohort or a longer program.
- Mixed attendance — some participants sponsored by their company, others self-funded.
