Design Patterns for Agile Developers Masterclass

Design Patterns for Agile Developers Masterclass - 3 day course in London

This course provides students with the skills necessary to repeat a style of analysis and design that facilitates Agile practices. This is done by illustrating the use of abstract coupling, patterns, testability, emergent (just-in-time) design, and emphasizing the critical qualities, principles, and practices that make flexible designs possible.

This course answers the key questions in modern development. How does one design systems that have changeability as a fundamental quality? And, how can the team communicate effectively when a design is in a constant state of change?

Upon completion of the course, students will be able to:

• Identify how to add functionality to their designs while minimizing complexity
• Recognize what design patterns really are
• Discover 12 specific design patterns
• Distinguish what code qualities you need to maintain to keep code flexible
• Classify how to use design patterns to keep code quality high

The Modulus Approach

Modulus provide high level content rich courses catering for the latest needs of analysts, software developers and test engineers in the financial, gaming and military simulations markets. Workshops are mostly delivered in a bespoke content specific format, for each of our clients but a selection of the most popular topics are being offered in Canary Wharf as public courses.

The Modulus lecturing team consists of industry experts who have a wealth of real world experience; they add the flavour to our courses with creative delivery styles and highly useful examples.

We promise you’re learning experience will feel different. Most companies assume that training is simple, as in essence it only has a few deliverables. Modulus does not take this view and aim to flip the whole training experience on its head. Strong emphasis is placed on each of these deliverables from pre course evaluation to course administration and final delivery. We include many features that companies consider optional extras and go that extra mile to make sure your courses are relevant and content rich before delivery.

Why Modulus?

With so many training vendors popping up providing price promises are options to retake courses if not 100% satisfied along with 100's of public courses why should you choose modulus. The answer is very simple we have a certain place within the market and are very good at what we do. If you want to focus on a specific problem but just can't find the right course then you need to be speaking to us. If you are looking for public places for your Cisco engineers then we would kindly decline.

Modulus Bespoke

Additionally, Modulus offer bespoke programmes which are designed as an iterative experience. This works in the way that we firstly look at the project need / problem or the skills gap, then the content is  presented as a discussion point before a final course outline is drafted. Finally this is remodeled to reflect building blocks, pace and course flow as a final tailored outlines.
