Why it's worth it

If you already passed the CKA, the full Kubestronaut bundle makes you buy it a second time. This upgrade drops the CKA and sells the other four exams, so the only question worth asking is whether four exams at this price beats four separate purchases. It does, and by more than the single-exam discount does.

Prep tips

• CKS requires an active CKA, so confirm yours has not lapsed before buying. If it has, this is the wrong bundle and the full Kubestronaut one is the cheaper route.
• KCNA and KCSA are both multiple choice and the quickest of the four. Take them first while you decide how much CKS preparation you actually need.
• CKAD overlaps with the CKA more than people expect, so sitting it soon after the CKA while the kubectl muscle memory is fresh usually costs the least preparation time.

How to use the code

1. Add the CKA to Kubestronaut bundle to your cart on training.linuxfoundation.org.
2. Enter RUSHABH30 in the coupon field at checkout.
3. The total drops 30%. RUSHABH30 works on the four-exam upgrade bundle; retakes on individual exams follow that exam's own eligibility window.
