We help you manage great enterprise software teams
It’s a challenging time for enterprise software development teams. Hiring freezes, staff cutbacks and loss of consultants mean that fewer, smaller teams must get the job done. While training budgets are being slashed, even more is being demanded of developers – deadlines are tighter, but more advanced features and functionality are required for each release.
InnerWorkings is here to help you build better, more productive teams. By improving their .NET programming skills, developers more consistently produce clean, defect-free code, reducing your debugging and rework costs. Our Executive Dashboard helps you identify developers’ strengths and assign project tasks appropriately. And by gaining hands-on practice, developers can move to newer, more productive technologies with greater ease.
Know your developers’ capabilities.
When managers know exactly what their team members can do, it’s much easier to organize teams and assign tasks effectively. InnerWorkings gives managers precise insight into the skill level of each developer and of the team as a whole, at all stages in the project lifecycle. It reduces project risk by optimizing utilization of every development team member, from project assignment through delivery.
Improve code quality and reduce defects.
It’s well-accepted that the longer a defect remains undetected, the more expensive it is to fix. Huge amounts of time and money are spent on software testing to improve product quality. But it’s much better (and even more cost-effective) to prevent defects happening in the first place. InnerWorkings helps developers write clean, consistent and defect-free code during the software design and implementation phases.
Drive efficiency through process.
Using a structured development process can dramatically increase software quality and help deliver projects on time and on budget. The Personal Software Process℠ (PSP) has a proven track-record helping developers to make accurate plans, meet commitments, and consistently deliver high quality software products. The PSP was created by the Software Engineering Institute (SEI) of Carnegie Mellon University, and InnerWorkings provides the only way to learn this methodology outside the classroom.
Enable developers to do more with less.
Microsoft’s .NET Framework is a powerful development platform and associated set of technologies that can greatly boost productivity when used effectively. InnerWorkings enables developers to harness this power more efficiently by helping them through the learning cycle quickly, so they can identify and implement the optimum .NET solutions in their production code.
Leverage the breadth and depth of the .NET Framework.
The InnerWorkings catalog of 600+ hours of .NET learning content provides self-paced, hands-on practice and guidance for writing the best code, using either VB or C#. We support your entire development organization, from your top-performing programmer to your most recent hire, with on-demand learning to support the skills they need today. Even better, our learning is 100% self-paced so your developers can improve their skills at any time, with minimum impact on your tight software release schedules.
Reduce the risk of moving to new technologies.
Our practice-based learning challenges help developers to refine skills and become comfortable with new technologies before applying them in a live production environment. Make it easier and safer to transition from legacy systems to newer, more cost-effective technologies with InnerWorkings. Read our case study titled Coding Against the Clock, which shows how RCS moved a legacy application to the .NET Framework using InnerWorkings to build their developers’ skills within a tight timeframe.
