Hi ROS community,
Enrollment for the New Robotics Developer Masterclass is now open.
This is a hands-on online training program designed for aspiring robotics developers who want to build practical ROS and ROS 2 skills through real robots, real projects, and structured mentorship.
The goal of the program is simple:
Help you develop the technical skills and project experience expected from a professional robotics developer.
What’s New?
We’ve made two major updates based on community feedback:
1. Learn at Your Own Pace
There is now no minimum number of study hours required per week.
You can progress through the program around your work, studies, and personal commitments while achieving the same learning outcomes.
2. Fixed Pricing
Pay once and keep access until you complete the program.
Whether you finish in 3 months or 2 years, your access remains available.
Learning Path
The Masterclass follows a structured 5-phase curriculum designed to take you from ROS beginner to a job-ready robotics developer.
Phase 1 – Foundations of Robot Programming and ROS
Build a solid foundation in programming and ROS development.
You will:
- Learn core robotics programming concepts
- Get started with ROS and ROS 2
- Work in the City Lab environment
- Program a mobile robot (FastBot)
- Complete essential ROS development tasks
By the end of this phase, you’ll be comfortable developing and testing ROS-based robotic applications.
Phase 2 – Become a ROS 2 Developer
Learn how modern robots perceive, navigate, and manipulate objects.
Topics include:
- Mobile robot navigation
- Environment perception
- Manipulation fundamentals
- Mobile manipulator programming
You will apply these skills in the Warehouse Lab by creating a complete pick-and-place application using:
-
RB-1 Base mobile robot
-
UR3e collaborative robot arm
Phase 3 – Understand How Robots Really Work
Go beyond ROS tools and learn the underlying robotics principles.
Topics include:
- Robot kinematics
- Robot dynamics
- Planning algorithms
- Control systems
- Robotics mathematics
You will implement navigation algorithms from scratch in the Cyber World Lab using a ROSbot XL platform.
Phase 4 – Build and Program Your Own Robot
In this phase, you’ll receive your own physical robot kit.
You will:
- Assemble a FastBot robot
- Configure and program the system
- Develop a ROS-based web application
- Use Docker and containerized workflows
- Apply continuous integration practices
The objective is to experience the complete robotics development workflow from hardware assembly to software deployment.
Phase 5 – Final Project & Certification
Demonstrate your skills through a complete robotics project.
You’ll:
- Build a portfolio-quality project
- Apply the skills learned throughout the program
- Present your solution
- Earn your final certification
This phase is designed to help showcase your capabilities to potential employers and robotics teams.
What You’ll Gain
By completing the program, you’ll:
✓ Master 20 essential robotics developer skills
✓ Receive and build your own ROS 2 robot (included)
✓ Get 1-on-1 mentorship from industry experts
✓ Build a portfolio of real robotics projects
✓ Earn a certification at the completion of each phase (NEW)
✓ Become eligible for an internship opportunity by completing the program within 6 months (NEW)
