Program Overview: What is Linux Device Drivers Programming?
Device drivers are where software meets hardware. This program teaches Linux driver programming properly: kernel modules, character devices, interrupt handling, and the device tree.
Led by embedded engineers, the program moves from kernel basics to character drivers, interrupts, and platform integration. Guided labs run in every module on realistic hardware scenarios.
The program closes with a capstone full build: a working Linux character device driver with interrupt handling and user-space interface, reviewed by the instructor.
Teams leave writing drivers confidently: kernel-safe code, handled interrupts, and hardware that responds.

Linux Device Drivers Programming Course Topics and Program Outline
7 modules, 24 instructor-led hours, and 4 guided labs that move Linux Device Drivers Programming from theory to dependable team practice.
Built by Edstellar with embedded engineers who write Linux device drivers for production hardware
Built by embedded engineers who write Linux device drivers for production hardware, shaped around your stack and use cases.
We check where your team stands on Device drivers today, so the program targets real gaps instead of repeating what they know.
Instructor-led sessions teach embedded systems concepts in order, with demos and Q&A in every module.
guided labs give your team coached repetition on realistic embedded systems scenarios with instructor review.
The capstone full build proves the learning: a device driver, built, reviewed, and ready to take back to work.
From baseline to job-ready in 24 hours.

Training Delivery Modes: Virtual, Onsite and Hybrid
Instructor-led delivery in hybrid, onsite, or live virtual formats, with hands-on labs in every session.
Hybrid Training
Split your cohort between the training room and a live virtual feed. Every session is instructor-led, with hands-on labs in each module and the same curriculum for both groups.
- Live instruction in every session
- Onsite workshops for guided labs
- Virtual sessions for distributed teams
- One cohort or split batches
Onsite Training
Your trainer comes to your premises. Sessions stay practical: hands-on labs run in the room with the instructor beside each team.
- Trainer at your premises
- Guided guided labs with the instructor beside each team
- Team collaboration in one room
- Agenda tuned on the spot
Live Virtual Training
Join from anywhere in live instructor-led sessions. Labs run in shared environments so the trainer can see every screen and coach in real time.
- Join from anywhere, live
- Shared lab environments with trainer coaching
- Sessions recorded for review
- Same curriculum, same hours
Need a training format that works for your team?
