Splunk has recently updated their offering for Splunk Pledge. As UConn is a member of Splunk Pledge, UConn receives select free training from Splunk. Below is the summary of the free trainings that anyone at the University may receive. For more detailed information on how to register please download the following pdf. You are also welcome to contact myself or Jonathan Moore (jonathan.a.moore@uconn.edu) for more information.
Course Title: Splunk Fundamentals 1
Estimated Time to Complete: 5 Hours
Course Cost: Free to anyone with a uconn.edu e-mail address
Course Title: Splunk Fundamentals 2
Estimated Time to Complete: 14 Hours
Course Cost: Free to anyone with a uconn.edu e-mail address
Please only sign up for these courses when you have time you can dedicate to completing them. eLearning courses through Splunk only allow you 30 days to complete them. That should be more than enough time to complete the course. If you have any other questions reach out to Splunk's Education team here https://www.splunk.com/en_us/view/education/SP-CAAAAH9
Separate from taking this free training, you are able to also acquire Splunk Certifications, but that offering is changing and is no longer free as part of Splunk Pledge. More information can be found here https://www.splunk.com/en_us/training/certification-track/splunk-certification-program-relaunch.html
