Lesson proof

Concept, demo, checklist, lab, and assignment evidence.

Portfolio pack

Requirement, artifact, validation, risk note, and interview story.

CV signal

Role-specific skill statement linked to a score or artifact.

Review queue

Submitted evidence can support dashboard, readiness, and career exports.

Certification objective coverage

Every provider-aligned module is connected to a lesson, labs, mock questions, and implementation proof.

This is the track-level audit view for blueprint alignment. Exact exam wording should still be checked against the current official provider guide before public exam-code claims are made.

Capture certificate URL, badge, expiry, renewal plan, and portfolio proof after the learner passes.

Study plan

Start with repository fundamentals, GitHub Flow, pull requests, code review, issues, projects, and collaboration habits.

Add Actions, environments, secrets, approvals, artifact retention, release notes, rollback, and deployment evidence.

Finish with organization administration, Advanced Security, Copilot governance, and audit-ready portfolio proof.

Hands-on labs

Create a repository governance workbook with branch protection, CODEOWNERS, issue templates, pull request checks, and release notes.

Build a GitHub Actions pipeline with lint, test, build, artifact, security scan, environment approval, deployment, and rollback evidence.

Create a GHAS evidence pack with code scanning, dependency review, secret scanning, vulnerability triage, remediation, and exception notes.

Design an organization administration plan with teams, roles, policies, audit logs, billing awareness, and onboarding workflow.

Create a Copilot governance note covering acceptable use, privacy, review, testing, prompt quality, and human accountability.

Practice questions

What evidence proves a GitHub Actions deployment is controlled?

Workflow run logs, required checks, environment approvals, secret handling, artifact/version records, deployment status, rollback notes, and release summary.

Why does GitHub Advanced Security require process evidence, not only scanner output?

Security findings must be triaged, fixed or accepted, retested, linked to owners, and communicated so the release decision is auditable.
