The Symfony certification from SensioLabs is now available at INFINITUM DIGITAL.

Could you please provide me with the text that you would like me to translate into English?

 Infinitum Digital has joined Sensiolabs' partner ecosystem to offer high value-added services based on Symfony.

Today we spoke with Xavi Heras and Roberto Pérez, two key figures in this partnership, after passing the demanding Symfony certification. 

Our colleagues share their experience at SensioLabs University and the direct implications it has for them and other team members, the new knowledge acquired.

How has your experience been at SensioLabs University?

It has been quite a challenge for both of you. Juggling your daily work routine with a highly demanding training program like the one offered by SensioLabs University has been complex.

In parallel with the weekly classes, we had to take a daily test of 20 questions that required a deep study beforehand, even if you had previous experience with Symfony. Upon completion, they provide you with recommended links to related documentation to further deepen your knowledge.

What sense of progress did you have during the training?

: Clear and simple. SensioLabs University has a very well-defined structure, with a real-time scoring system and numerous documentation to consult. As we progressed, we noticed a greater control over the projects and technical conflicts. Applying what we learned had a direct impact on our active projects.

Thanks to the formative methodology and evaluation system of SensioLabs University, we were able to know with some precision our level of knowledge in different areas: HTTP, PHP, security, test automation, data validation, dependencies, the console, etc.

How have you applied this new knowledge to your projects?

As Roberto mentioned before, we now have better control of the projects, we know new Symfony components, we have less dependency on external elements to Symfony, and greater flexibility to achieve goals and solutions.

 We have greater security when executing and planning projects with Symfony. Certification has provided us with structuring, best practices, process standardization... all of this combined makes our work and coordination with other colleagues easier to manage and execute.

Although the certification has started with the two of us, the whole team is benefiting from the knowledge, methodologies, and tools that we have acquired during the training.

Now we are more independent and resourceful, we generate more ideas to solve tasks.

The philosophy of INFINITUM DIGITAL is based on continuous learning, so obtaining this certification is one more step on the way. Now we are sharing all that we have learned with the rest of our colleagues and helping them make their certification process easier.

Now we have less dependency on external frameworks or tools in Symfony, we make better use of Symfony's native capabilities, which results in increased speed at all levels: management, development, performance, reliability, deliveries, reviews, etc.

For a few months now, we have been exploring and applying the possibilities of 

, an open-source framework based on Symfony, with very good performance results.

What has working with Symfony meant for you?

There is no doubt about this. What used to require 20 lines of code in PHP can be done in 3 lines in Symfony. It is more comfortable to manage, develop, more flexible, secure, and efficient.
