Welcome to the How to Pick the Right LLM Learning Path! Designed for engineers and technical practitioners, this course moves beyond benchmark-driven defaults to build a repeatable approach to model selection, rooted in a core truth: there is no single best model, only the right model for a specific task. You will first master a framework built around six key selection factors: use case, performance, latency, cost at scale, deployment, and security. From there, the path dives into the distinct LLM call types that power agentic systems—including classification, planning, and tool dispatch—and explores how architectural properties like reasoning mode and structured-output compliance dictate fit. Finally, you will jump into a hands-on JupyterLab environment to benchmark models across four capability tiers on canonical agent tasks. By measuring real-world latency and token consumption, you will build a data-driven scorecard to confidently design optimized, multi-tier model architectures.

This learning path takes you from Linux fundamentals to confident system administration. You'll learn how Linux is structured, master the command line, and manage users, permissions, processes, and storage. You'll also harden systems against attacks and automate routine work with shell scripts, building the core skills every entry-level engineer needs to run Linux systems.

This learning path introduces Keeper Security, covering core platform capabilities, enterprise features, Keeper Vault, and KeeperPAM for privileged access management. Participants will gain practical understanding through a hands-on lab, reinforcing deployment concepts and real-world use cases for securing credentials, secrets, and privileged access across modern environments.

Learn the basics about network security and how next-generation firewalls (NGFW) fits in and establish a baseline knowledge to help aid you through the Next-Generation Firewall learning paths. Throughout this learning path you will learn network security, tools and techniques used to help secure your network, and how the NGFW fits into your security requirements. You will have the opportunity to explore these concepts that will help you walk the NGFW learning path with ease and comfort to aid you on your successful journey of learning NGFW! Now let's get started!
