Course Summary

Home > Courses >Software Engineering Training >Agile >Agile Engineering Fast Track

The Agile Engineering Fast Track is an intensive Fast Track, with at least 70% of the time spent on hands-on programming. The course length can be customized to fit a team. This course assumes prior programming experience – we recommend 6 months of experience with an Object-Oriented (OO) language, such as Java, C#, VB.net, or C++.

The course begin by teaching students how to integrate Agile development, Test-Driven Development (TDD), and OO principles and practices. The course then dives into applying design patterns and Unified Modeling Language (UML), using commonality and variances, delegation, refactoring and using abstraction. The course concludes with an understanding of how to manage access and responsibilities.

The course can be customized to any Agile implementation chosen – Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe), SCRUM, Extreme Programming (XP), Lean, etc.
