Databricks 1/2 day certification course at Spark Summit

[Sumona Routh <su...@gmail.com>]

Hi all,
My company just now approved for some of us to go to Spark Summit in SF
this year. Unfortunately, the day long workshops on Monday are sold out
now. We are considering what we might do instead.

Have others done the 1/2 day certification course before? Is it worth
considering? Does it cover anything in particular around Spark or is it
more of an exam-prep type course? We have people with varying skill levels
-- would this be a waste for newer Spark devs or is there still some good
info to glean?

We may decide to save the budget for other types of local training, but I
wanted to see what others who may have done this course before think.

Thanks!
Sumona
