G'day Developers!

Featuring our very own Brooke Rooney, the SSW TV team created a video about Lync 2013 to showcase how well it works, both as a software 'phone', and as an instant messaging system. The video also shows how Lync 2013 can integrate with a physical office phone system.

Intensive Professional Scrum Developer Course

Scrum

Intensive 3-day Professional Scrum Developer course
Brisbane, Sydney, Adelaide, Melbourne, Perth, Canberra

Cost: $2,995 + GST Pre Paid

Professional Scrum Developer courses teach students how to work in a team, using modern software engineering practices, to develop an increment of potentially releasable functionality using a specific technology platform. Students learn to do so within the Scrum framework doing iterative incremental development.

Classes are exercise-driven, with students working in self-organizing teams to develop "done" increments from Product Backlog items.

Course at a Glance

This 3-day Professional Scrum Developer .NET course is a mix of lecture, demonstration, group discussion, simulation, and hands-on software development. The bulk of the course will be spent working as a team on a case study application delivering increments of new functionality in mini-sprints. Here is the course at a glance:

"Native or Nurtured?" - Paul Usher

More and more, developers are being asked to create applications that provide a unified user experience across multiple platforms and devices. Many developers are at a cross-roads. Do they learn new languages and build native? Do they design web apps? Or is hybrid the way to go?

In this talk, Paul will explore what it really means to create a visually stunning, interactive multi-channel application. He’ll demonstrate the DevExpress DXTREME toolset and show how they allow developers to create striking, unified digital experiences across platforms and devices from Windows 8 to the iPad and Android.

ABOUT THE PRESENTER

Paul Usher is a Technical Evangelist at DevExpress. DevExpress technologies help software developers build high-performance business solutions, see complex software with greater clarity, increase productivity, and create stunning applications for Windows® and the Web in the shortest possible time.

Prior to joining DevExpress, Paul ran (and still owns) an independent software development company who specialize in custom solutions for small to medium businesses, with a focus on mobile and paperless solutions. He has developed more than 100 commercial applications on Windows, OS X, iOS and other platforms that are used worldwide covering a wide range of industries from retail, medical, construction and various service industries. Paul is a published author and speaks at industry events around the world.
