Thank you to everyone in the Splunk Community who joined us for .conf25, which kicked off with our iconic Splunk University classroom tracks and ended with an unforgettable three days in Boston. It was your energy, curiosity, and commitment to learning that made this year’s user conference so impactful and memorable.
Splunk University at our new Boston campus
Splunk University once again proved why it’s the best way to kick off .conf. Over three days, our instructors led 17 intensive courses across 1-, 2-, and 3-day tracks. Nearly 2,400 seats were filled, and 912 unique students walked away with fresh Splunk skills, hands-on practice, and connections that we believe extend far beyond the classroom. Consider attending next year to round out your Splunk skills and experience or to get a taste of what Splunk Education offers all year round.
Certifications validate that you’re ‘wicked smaht’
The Certification pop-up exam room was buzzing with activity, delivering 753 exams on-site. Certification continues to be a career game-changer, and we celebrated that success with the always-popular Bragging Rights Spotlight, our networking event where certified users connect, share their wins, and raise a glass together.

Hands-on workshops and Pavilion fun
Splunk Education was everywhere at .conf25. In addition to Splunk University, our instructors delivered four interactive workshops, seamlessly tying Splunk training content into the broader conference experience. At the Education Station in the Pavilion, almost 600 visitors stopped by to explore Drop-in Labs, explore all our Splunk Education programs, and create custom flip books on our “Flipping Fun” stage. Learn more about everything that Splunk Education has to offer.
Community moments to remember
Our very own Splunk Education leader, Eric Fusilero, was an honorary host for the Splunk Trust Induction Ceremony, celebrating our most dedicated community champions. It was a powerful reminder about the devotion our users have to each other. And, the unique teaching style of Haya Husain was showcased on the Global Broadcast, she delivered “Unlock Your Power: Splunk Basics,” which is now available on replay.
As we reflect on these incredible moments, we want to extend our deepest gratitude to you – the Splunk Community. Your drive to learn, share, and grow is what makes Splunk University and .conf25 so special. You are the heartbeat of these events, and we can’t wait to see you on your learning journey in the months ahead.
Until next year’s .conf in Denver,
– Callie Skokos on behalf of the entire Splunk Education Crew
