When will I have access to the lectures and assignments?

To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.

What will I get if I subscribe to this Specialization?

When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.

Is financial aid available?

Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.

Transform your data engineering capabilities with production-ready Apache Airflow workflows that eliminate manual intervention and ensure bulletproof reliability. This course empowers data engineers to move beyond simple task scheduling to architecting resilient, maintainable, and configurable automated pipelines that handle real-world complexities.

You'll master the art of defining logical task dependencies, implementing automated retry mechanisms for transient failures, configuring Service Level Agreements with proactive alerting, and designing parameterized workflows that adapt to different scenarios. By course completion, you'll confidently create robust DAGs that integrate monitoring systems like Slack, handle edge cases gracefully, and scale from development to production environments. This course is unique because it focuses on production-grade practices from day one, teaching you to build workflows that data teams actually trust to run unsupervised. You'll work with real-world scenarios involving sales data processing, automated monitoring, and enterprise-level reliability requirements. To be successful in this course, you should have basic Python knowledge and familiarity with data processing concepts.
