12 modules, each with 12 chapters (144 chapters total), text-based, plus downloadable templates and a hand-built implementation playbook delivered alongside course access.
The gap between governance decisions and working data systems

The situation this course is for

Compliance requirements often arrive as PDFs or Jira tickets with vague acceptance criteria, leading to back-and-forth, manual checks, and slow iterations. Even when policy is clear, translating it into reliable Databricks jobs takes longer than it should, delaying analytics, slowing audit readiness, and increasing rework risk.

Who this is for

Senior Databricks Developers who own both data engineering and governance integration, expected to deliver compliant pipelines at speed

Who this is not for

Junior engineers still learning Spark SQL, or compliance analysts without code access

What you walk away with

  • Translate compliance rules directly into testable Databricks notebook assertions
  • Ship policy-as-code templates that auto-validate schema, access controls, and lineage
  • Reduce policy implementation cycles from weeks to under 96 hours
  • Automate audit readiness for data governance frameworks (e.g. ISO 27001, CCPA)
  • Produce self-documenting pipelines that pass both peer review and compliance review on first submission
