Build your Grafana Skills
It’s easy to get started with Grafana, but it can be more challenging to become an expert. Training is a great way to accelerate your teams skill and adoption with Grafana.
Training is available to clients with an active Grafana Enterprise subscription and can be custom tailored for your team.
We’ll turn your team into Grafana Experts.
Packaged or Tailored
We offer a number of prepared training courses to jump right in, but if you have something different in mind, let us know. We can craft a custom training course specifically for you, based on what your goals with Grafana are.
An Expert Duo
All sessions are staffed by two instructors, so we can better help individuals without holding up the session. Instructors are experienced developers and users. Leverage their know-how to make your Grafana project successful.
Training on your terms
Train your team via either webinar or arrange an on-site visit. No training is more convenient than having GrafanaLabs instructors teach your team together in your offices, utilizing your data, and your Grafana.
