Books & audiobooks

There are nearly 50K books and 2.5K audiobooks from O’Reilly and other top publishers available on Degreed. To find your next title:

  1. Search by topic, title, or author (for example, Python), then select Book in the Type filter and O’Reilly in the Provider filter. The results will surface all books and audiobooks available from O’Reilly. (Note that all audiobooks are tagged as “Books,” so we recommend filtering by books or audiobooks in the next step to help differentiate.)

  2. Scroll down to the Format filter and select Book to see books only or Audio to see audiobooks only.

Certification guides

O’Reilly certification guides are complete sets of materials you’ll need to help you prepare for the industry’s most sought-after certifications—including official prep materials from the vendors themselves. You’ll find a variety of content formats like self-paced books, instructor-led videos, and interactive practice tests.

Here’s how to find certification guides on Degreed:

  1. Search for a certification or vendor (for example, AZ-900 or Microsoft), then select Course in the Type filter and O’Reilly in the Provider filter.

  2. Scroll down and select Certification Guide in the Format filter.

Certification practice tests

Taking an actual test is the most helpful way to study for a certification exam, which is where practice tests come into play. They’re interactive and customizable, and you can track your performance on a module-by-module basis to get immediate feedback that helps you determine which areas to focus on next.

Each practice test offers three modes designed to help you prepare:

  • Study Mode works as a study guide to evaluate your knowledge. You get answers and full explanations for each question, and you have the option to NOT time yourself so you can study at your own pace.
  • Practice Exams give you the chance to take a simulated timed practice test.
  • Flash Cards provide the questions WITHOUT multiple choice answers for a true test of your mastery.

Here’s how to find practice tests on Degreed:

  1. Search for a certification or vendor (for example, AZ-900 or Microsoft), then select Course in the Type filter and O’Reilly in the Provider filter.

  2. Scroll down and select Practice Test in the Format filter.

Courses

Build your skills and see your progress with courses and quizzes, which you can easily find by knowledge level so you know where to start.

  1. Search by topic (for example, Python). If you’d like to see courses with quizzes, add “with quiz” to your query (for example, Python with quiz). Then select Course in the Type filter and O’Reilly in the Provider filter.

  2. Scroll down to select other filters such as Duration, Difficulty level, and the Date Published time frame.

Interactive

Labs and sandboxes allow you to experiment with new technologies hands-on in a safe environment. Because interactive content is somewhat unique, it’s not clearly tagged in Degreed. But it’s pretty easy to find.

  1. Search by topic or technology (for example, Kubernetes or Docker), then select Course in the Type filter and O’Reilly in the Provider filter.

  2. Scroll down to the Format filter and select Lab for guided hands-on learning, Cloud Lab for step-by-step guidance on cloud technologies, or Sandbox for unguided experimentation.

Live events

O’Reilly live events include live courses, expert-led conversations, Katas challenges, and Superstreams—our bite-size tech conferences. If your organization has access, you can also find events most relevant to you through skill plans, which are curated collections of events by topic, region, or date. Here’s how to find individual events and skill plans:

  1. To find individual events, search for a topic (for example, Security), then choose Event in the Type filter and O’Reilly in the Provider filter.
