Do Kubernetes Certs Prepare You For Real-World Production?

Technical trainer Benjamin Muschko joins hosts Kristina Devochko and Michael Levan to discuss the gap between Kubernetes certifications and real-world production skills. All three critique the focus on command-line proficiency in certifications, advocating for a practical approach that tests real-life scenarios. Muschko proposes a “capture the flag” style exam with hands-on projects, while the hosts suggest customizable exam paths and interactive assessments. The conversation underscores the importance of aligning certifications with best practices and real-world applicability in Kubernetes environments.
