About the Series
Earn GitHub Foundations Certification with DataCouch is a free, hands-on meetup series designed to help learners and teams prepare confidently for the GitHub Foundations Certification-while also building real-world GitHub literacy that actually matters on the job.

👉 Vol 3 builds on both sessions and focuses on how GitHub works beyond repositories and pull requests.

What This Session Is About
Vol 3: Introduction to GitHub Products, Plans & Billing helps you understand GitHub as a developer platform, not just a code hosting tool.
Many teams actively use GitHub but remain unclear about:

  • Plans vs features
  • Seat usage and licensing
  • Metered services like Actions and storage
  • Organizational governance and cost visibility

This session fills that gap-clearly, practically, and in plain language.
