Classroom Training

Classroom Training


I’ve taught teams at NASA, University of Chicago, Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, and University of Massachusetts Boston. They all had one thing in common: the positive results of bringing the team together for a day or two to learn a new technology.

Each training class has a base curriculum that can be customized to meet the exact needs of your team.

I’ve taught Git version control but added in material about Subversion because the trainees were moving from Subversion to Git. I’ve also customized my curriculum to work with a customer's technology stack.

When customers bring me in for training I don’t just show up and teach. I make sure my teaching goals match your learning objectives.

Right now I offer the following in-person classroom training:
