“We had several stakeholders who recommended the training very highly and we are glad we listened.”
- Sushil Gyanwali, Director, Global L&D Engineering Academy at HARMAN
Harman University is Engineering Academy of major Car Manufacture, specialising in designing and engineering connected products and solutions for automakers, consumers, and enterprises worldwide. With the goal of upskilling engineers in mind, Harman University chose to purchase both the Anatomy of a Deployment Pipeline and the Better Software Faster course. We chose CD.Training because Dave Farley is a renowned, top expert in continuous SW development and delivery. The training that Dave provided gave the very clear idea of automated testing to provide and get fast feedback on all changes immediately. The course benefits from flowing, content rich, highly detailed videos. The engineers explained they were reassured by the information provided by Dave being backed by data and experience.“The courses are well organized and just the right amount of details and examples to grasp the important points without being overwhelmed.”The provision of on-line material is easy to follow, allowing to pick one's own pace for learning. The combination of textbook and video materials allows learners to choose between textbook-only, video-only, or mixed learning. The course also has the advantage of the “Lifetime" access to materials allows to go back and refresh or reference later. When the engineers were asked which learnings from the training they would like to implement in real projects they responded Literally: everything! The course immediately enabled them to design CICD architecture for their project on CI and CD and it helped to validate designs. Teams are now able to work with much faster feedback to evaluate developer changes. Overall the training clarified the ways to implement Continuous Integration and highlights the key points to strategize the ways of adding the mechanism in our current projects. Thank you for these courses and the ongoing support in monitoring the student progress.
“We appreciated very much the weekly progress reports; these helped us to keep everyone on track.”
