Best training in the Go community
"You should reach out to the team over at @ardanlabs. They have been training the Go community since the beginning and I've yet to see anyone do it better."
- Kelsey Hightower
The perfect partner
"ArdanLabs was the perfect partner for us because there is no better Go training out there and their engineer augmentation services didn't feel like engaging with contractors. Their engineers are true team players and great mentors for our team."
- Tradesy
Great class!
"Great class! The teams would benefit from post-class help in code reviews, mentoring, and development of starter kits for typical applications types in our environment."
