What is Professional Data Engineer Training about?

This learning path is focused on providing learners with deep, hands-on knowledge and skills in data engineering using Google Cloud. It covers core data engineering concepts, tools, and services such as BigQuery, Dataflow, Dataproc, streaming and batch pipelines, and how to operationalize data systems in production. The path is also designed to help learners prepare for the Google Cloud Professional Data Engineer certification.

What are the objectives of Professional Data Engineer Training ?

  • Design, build, and manage batch and streaming data pipelines on Google Cloud.
  • Leverage GCP services (BigQuery, Dataflow, Dataproc, Pub/Sub) to create scalable, efficient data architectures.
  • Implement data lake and data warehouse modernization strategies.
  • Optimize and operate data systems in production, including monitoring, reliability, and cost control.
  • Prepare learners to confidently attempt the Professional Data Engineer certification exam.

Who is Professional Data Engineer Training for?

  • Aspiring or current data engineers who want to deepen their expertise in cloud-based data pipelines.
  • Data architects or analytics engineers who want to architect scalable pipelines.
  • Software or backend engineers interested in working with big data & streaming systems.
  • Data operations / infrastructure engineers responsible for maintaining data systems.
  • Professionals preparing for or targeting the Google Cloud Professional Data Engineer certification.

What are the prerequisites for Professional Data Engineer Training?

  • Foundational knowledge of data concepts (ETL, schemas, relational vs non-relational).
  • Some experience with SQL (writing queries, joins, aggregations).
  • Basic programming familiarity (Python, Java, or other languages) for pipeline logic.
  • Familiarity with cloud computing concepts (VMs, storage, networking).
  • Access to a Google Cloud account and willingness to perform labs and hands-on exercises.
