Frequently asked questions

How does it differ from ES20G?
ES20G explains how the system is built inside. This one teaches you to work it: start it, configure it and follow where the work goes.

Do we perform an IPL on the course?
Yes, startup is one of the blocks with a lab, which is the only way to stop being afraid of it.

Group size and language?
Closed groups of four to ten people, in Spanish, English or French. We run it with fewer than four as well, though it usually pays to wait and fill the group.
