Training Courses

Our training courses are intensive and hands-on. We work with small groups of up to 14 participants to ensure an optimal learning experience. We offer both customized in-company courses, on-site and remote.

If you have a need that is not covered by an existing course, we are happy to make a new one for you. Our best courses originate from specific requests from our customers!

We can deliver our courses in English, Dutch, German, or French. Programming exercises are available in Java, C#, C++, Scala, Ruby, Python, JavaScript, and TypeScript.

Training courses

Agile Engineering

Deliver software with confidence & joy (3-5 days)

Agile, Lean and Scrum provide great focus on delivering in short cycles. To keep on delivering quality software with confidence, you need to master agile engineering principles & practices.
Available for Java, C#, C++, Python, TypeScript, Ruby

Test Driven Development

Hands on & interactive (2-3 days)

Test driven development in once sentence: write a failing test, make it pass, refactor and repeat - easier said than done. Take a deep dive in growing your test driven development skills.
Available for Java, Kotlin, C#, C++, Python, TypeScript, Ruby, and more

Mastering Legacy Code

Build confidence with legacy code (2-3 days)

We all know 'em: those areas in your code base that need quite some courage to work on. Join us & learn techniques to make changes in these areas with confidence.
Available for Java, C#, C++

Systems Thinking for Sustainable Delivery

Deep insights for sustainable delivery (1-2 days)

Issues in teams and organisations are often tough to tackle. In retrospectives we tend to focus on symptoms. Learn techniques to explore systems behind symptoms and to act effectively.

Introduction to Domain Driven Design

Getting a grip on software complexity (2 days)

Domain-driven design is an approach to software development for complex needs by connecting the architecture and implementation to an evolving model of the problem domain. It enables an agile approach to complex software development by putting the domain model central.

Implementing Domain Driven Design

Domain modelling all the way, from post-it to working code (1-2 days)

Domain-driven design is an approach to software development for complex needs by connecting the architecture and implementation to an evolving model of the problem domain. Working from your domain facilitates higher quality software products that will be better maintainable.
Available for Java, Kotlin, TypeScript

Hexagonal Architecture Hands-on

Malleable software (1 or 2 days)

Applying Hexagonal Architecture helps teams to achieve loosely coupled design that speaks your domain language. It facilitates controlled evolution of domain logic, business rules, APIs, databases, and external dependencies.
Available for Java, C#, C++, Python

User Story Mapping & Dimensional Planning

More effective product decisions (1 day)

Managing your product backlog as an ordered list of user stories is a challenge. Your customer wants it all, but it takes too long! User Story Mapping and Dimensional Planning are two pragmatic product management techniques for realizing more value sooner.

Workshops

Collaborative Domain Modelling with Event Storming

Shared domain understanding through collaborative modelling (1 day)

A practical workshop for aligning business, product and tech around a complex domain, making hidden assumptions visible, and enabling better decisions about product, features, and architecture.

Spice up your refinements with Example Mapping

Make your refinements more effective and more fun (½ - 1 day)

Do you have long, boring refinement sessions? Do you still run into surprises and lack of shared understanding when building the software? In this hands-on workshop, you will learn Example Mapping, a simple technique to make your refinements more effective and more enjoyable.

Map your Delivery Value Stream for Better Flow

Reduce waste and friction by taking a systems view (½ - 1 day)

Are features taking too long from idea to production? Do improvements have little impact? In this hands-on workshop, you will visualize your delivery process from concept to cash. You will discover sources of friction and waste that are slowing you down. You will also discover how the large work batches and long feedback loops eat away valuable time. You will find the actual bottlenecks in your way of working.
