Creating a Course on CoRise: A Comprehensive Guide
I learned about CoRise about a year ago from my friend who had just started teaching a class on dbt. Listening to her experience it sounded like a great option to discuss interesting subjects while being able to get into more detail than you are normally limited to with a single blog post or hour long talk. I had a few topics in mind but one topic I’m particularly interested in and wanted to expand upon was data engineering, specifically around Dagster.
I have now completed two runs of my CoRise course (with another coming up soon) and have really enjoyed the experience. Looking back I wanted to share some thoughts on building and maintaining a course with CoRise.
