Changes are possible. The course content is updated regularly.

Basic programming skills and experience in another programming language such as C, Java or Python are required.

By the end of the course, you will be able to develop simple programs with Go using basic syntax, data types, control structures, functions and error handling. You will use object-based programming with structures and interfaces and understand advanced concepts such as concurrency and network programming.

You also understand the basics of artificial intelligence and machine learning. You will be able to process data, create and evaluate models and have initial experience with deep learning and unsupervised learning.

IT apprentices, IT specialists, programmers and specialists with relevant professional experience.

With the growing demand for AI applications, developers with the relevant skills are in high demand across all industries.

The skills of Go developers in the field of software development are in high demand on the job market. This is particularly the case for companies that use microservices and cloud technologies.

Didactic concept

Your lecturers are highly qualified both professionally and didactically and will teach you from the first to the last day (no self-study system).

You will learn in effective small groups. The courses usually consist of 6 to 25 participants. The general lessons are supplemented by numerous practical exercises in all course modules. The practice phase is an important part of the course, as it is during this time that you process what you have just learned and gain confidence and routine in its application. The final section of the course involves a project, a case study or a final exam.

 

Virtual classroom alfaview®

Lessons take place using modern alfaview® video technology - either from the comfort of your own home or at our premises at Bildungszentrum. The entire course can see each other face-to-face via alfaview®, communicate with each other in lip-sync voice quality and work on joint projects. Of course, you can also see and talk to your connected trainers live at any time and you will be taught by your lecturers in real time for the entire duration of the course. The lessons are not e-learning, but real live face-to-face lessons via video technology.

 

The courses at alfatraining are funded by Agentur für Arbeit and are certified in accordance with the AZAV approval regulation. When submitting a Bildungsgutscheinor Aktivierungs- und Vermittlungsgutschein, the entire course costs are usually covered by your funding body.
Funding is also possible via Europäischen Sozialfonds (ESF), Deutsche Rentenversicherung (DRV) or regional funding programs. As a regular soldier, you have the option of attending further training courses via Berufsförderungsdienst (BFD). Companies can also have their employees qualified via funding from Agentur für Arbeit (Qualifizierungschancengesetz).
