No previous knowledge of Docker or containers is necessary to take this course.  We will teach you everything you need to know.

This course will cover Docker and containers, container registries, container orchestration, understand if this will work for the enterprise, and how to prepare yourself for it. You'll learn how this is going to impact you as an individual as well as the teams and organizations you work for.

1) What containers are and why you should care

3) How to prepare for containers so you can take your career to the next level.

Plenty on what docker can be used for but nothing about how to develop an app for docker or how to use an app that is already on docker hub or other repository.

Greatful for an overview.
But even so, could have examples of what are in containers and less fluff -- such as a whole section on preparedness

Not great. I feel like i was listening to a work presentation. It was free so I can't complain. You can get it down to by playback of x1.75 and you won't miss anything. Overall you can likely find better material on YouTube.

Course is absolutely highlevel, i.e. wikipedia of what docker is.
and it still has two duplicated lectures despite it has been pointed for few years already

i'd do not recommened it to anyone:
- if you are looking for highlevel info spent 5 minuted looking through https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Docker_(software) instead of hour-long training
- if you are looking for fresh start, look for somewhere else

This is a very nice course for beginner. I have one suggestion , In this course would have some more graphics and visual content to understand the sequential flow of Dockerization of services and microservices and it is same for state full and state-less. Thanks for Valuable Knowledge provided by You.

Overall course was good, below mentioned few things can be updated:
Ram <- RAM, initial Slides, please update.
There should not be one to one comparison between Virtual Machine and Containers, as mentioned in initial slides. Both serves different purpose and used to have different solutions, in short containers are not the replacement of VMs!
Slide-22, Section "Docker Hub" is the duplicate content of its previous slide.
Entire Slide 23 is the duplicate of Slide 22.
