Become a Certified Agile Developer!

The UW Extension for Professional Development and Continuing Education now has a Certificate Program in Agile Development. It's being taught by some guys I used to work with first-hand, so I happen to know they are all pretty good at Agile Development. They are certainly highly qualified, and this certification course is a good opportunity for those folks who may not be as familiar with Agile principles to get some good instruction on how to do it well. Be sure to apply now, as this course is likely to fill fast.

Agile Beer Night

We the practitioners of Agile and users of Beer, hereby proclaim Agile Beer Night.

The Agile Beer Users Group (Seattle Chapter) will be meeting on Thursday Aug 21, for information sharing, networking, agile discussions, a brief topic presentation on Automated Acceptance Testing, oh - and BEER. Come meet us for a discussion and brief presentation on Agile practices each month.

There is good food, good beer, and a good chance to meet some of the folks who do agile development in the Pacific Northwest, get to know their tricks, and share in their success. The Owl has a fine selection of food, drinks, and spirits for those who choose them.

ABN next meeting will be held in Seattle at the Owl and Thistle Irish Pub and Restaurant at 808 Post Avenue in downtown Seattle from 5PM to 8PM on Thursday August 21 2008.

The September ABN meeting will be on the East side in Redmond or Bellevue, but plans are not firm yet - stay tuned...


Please link this post, track it back, and let everyone know!

Next ABN on Thursday August 21 2008 5PM to 8PM at the Owl and Thistle Irish Pub and Restaurant at 808 Post Avenue in downtown Seattle
