Training Courses

Software Architecture for Developers
Join us for Software Architecture for Developers, a two-day training course about pragmatic software architecture.

Enterprise Software Developer
Alternatively there's Enterprise Software Developer, a four day practical training course about building software within an enterprise environment in a structured, lightweight and pragmatic way. It covers the complete end-to-end software development process; from planning, gathering requirements and software architecture through to the effective use of source code control, automated unit testing, continuous integration and load testing.

Private courses are available throughout Europe - please get in touch.

Speaking

Simon Brown presented a free talk about where to start with software architecture at Skills Matter in London on the 17th of May. You can view the slides or watch the video.

Simon is presenting a session called Where do you start? at the Norwegian .NET User Group (NNUG) on the 24th of August in Oslo.

About the author

Depending on your viewpoint, Simon is either a software architect who codes or a software developer who understands architecture. When he's not developing software with .NET or Java, Simon can usually be found consulting, coaching or training. Simon has also written books about Java, presented at industry events and has put together a training course called Software architecture for developers, which is based upon his software architecture writing at Coding the Architecture.
