DIVERSITY, EQUITY, AND INCLUSION
SADA has more access to industry professionals and enterprise Cloud opportunities than any other educational environment. Talent and the ability to learn are universal, but access and opportunity are not. With a focused SADA+GCP-salient curriculum, SADA U aims to bridge the gap between under-represented talent and meaningful job opportunities.
At SADA, we believe true excellence requires an atmosphere of respect, dignity, and acceptance. Our mission is to up-skill team members for continued innovation in the tech ecosystem and beyond. SADA U is just one of our vehicles for driving our commitment to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging.
“Heart, money, brain, earth; all are valuable. SADA U is the most valuable cloud training, for all the right values.” - Miles Ward, CTO, SADA

SADA CAREER PATH
After the first six weeks of instruction, the students dive into shadowing delivery teams to experience firsthand how we are helping our customers solve their business challenges.
We work in cohorts, small groups working to learn together, focusing on specific skills in high demand from our ever-growing customer base. We've had cohorts learning Kubernetes, Cloud Infrastructure, Data Engineering, and we have future cohorts coming, not only in those same areas, but also in Looker Business Intelligence, Cloud Security, Applied ML, and whatever comes next in the future of cloud.
