Elevate Your Data Transformation Workflow
dbt Cloud is the industry standard for modern data engineering. It enables teams to work like software developers using version control, modularity, and automated testing to ensure a „single source of truth.“ We will guide you through the entire lifecycle of a dbt project, from initial setup to production-ready deployment.
What to expect in this training:
• Live & hands-on: You will work directly within dbt Cloud, combining short expert insights with guided exercises and live Q&A.
• Quality & Maintainability: Learn how to create, run, and debug tests, generate automated documentation, and organize Your models for scale.
• Workflow Efficiency: Master incremental models, packages, and macros to build high-performance, repeatable workflows.
• Production Deployment: Understand the essentials of Version Control (Git), Continuous Integration (CI), job scheduling, and downstream BI integrations (e.g., Tableau).
Target Audience
This training is designed for Analytics Engineers, Data Engineers, and Data Analysts who want to set up and operate professional data transformations using dbt Cloud.
