cka-learning VS curriculum

Here's the notes and preparation materials are written by my friend to pass CKA. Hope this will be helpful for your preparations as well.

Here is my learning repo where I kept my notes, study plan, sample tests etc. https://github.com/kmjayadeep/cka-learning

Also check out https://www.cncf.io/certification/cka/. One of the good links in resources is the exam curriculum.

My primary skills revolve around Linux/Docker/Kubernetes, AWS, and automation tools like Gitlab CI, Jenkins, etc. Of course I've picked up a ton of ancillary skills along the way, but these are the core of what I do. So if you do go down that route look at the Kubernetes certs like the CKA, CKAD, and CKS. There are also -JP versions of each of those certs as well, which may be useful in the Japanese market. The CNCF (Cloud Native Computing Foundation) is a great organization to follow in this regard: https://www.cncf.io/certification/training/ - They have other non-Kubernetes certs as well.

Here’s the curriculum for the exam - https://github.com/cncf/curriculum/blob/master/CKAD_Curriculum_v1.23.pdf

It's not in the official CKAD syllabus either and I didn't encounter it the exam. Just my experience though. https://github.com/cncf/curriculum/blob/master/CKAD_Curriculum_v1.22.pdf

If you want some training, take a look at the Linux Foundation and Cloud Native Computing Foundation.

I currently co-lead the documentation efforts for Kubernetes & LitmusChaos, am a CNCF ambassador, have spoken at global events, and have even co-led the creation & review of the KCNA certification. I intend to continue and plan on writing/speaking more about cloud native & open source. My target is to get myself CKA & CKAD certified by Q1, 2022 & continue exploring other avenues of the projects I can contribute to.

I'm preparing for the CKAD exam. I am following the https://github.com/cncf/curriculum/blob/master/CKAD_Curriculum_V1.21.pdf curriculum for my preparation. There is however another one https://github.com/cncf/curriculum/blob/master/CKAD-2021_Curriculum_Coming_Q3_2021.pdf.
