Software Inspections and Peer Reviews

The software industry has known for decades that inspections and other types of peer reviews are among the most cost-effective ways to remove defects from any software work product, not just code. This eLearning course is based on Karl Wiegers's book Peer Reviews in Software: A Practical Guide. It's an enhanced version of Process Impact's 1-day live seminar on this topic. The course describes how to perform reviews and inspections, the business benefits they can provide, the interpersonal and cultural issues involved, and how to install a review program in your organization.

Project Management Best Practices

Managing software projects is difficult under the best circumstances. You can reduce the difficulty and improve your chances of success by applying known industry best practices for software project management. This course presents 30 such best practices (recognizing that "best" is situational). The course also includes our popular "Project Initiation Handbook," a $30 value. This course will be valuable for both new and seasoned software managers. Think of this as Project Management 102. It covers many practices that managers generally only learn through painful experience.
