Comments from students of the courses on which
this series is based:
"The software project management course gave me the skills and
tools I needed to accurately forecast and track a
multi-million dollar software development effort. Our
customer's satisfaction with our software development process
and execution skyrocketed. These project management skills
are easily transferable to hardware and systems engineering,
as well."
Software Project Manager for a major defense contractor
"Dr. Frailey has a way of making theoretical concepts come to
life in their applicability to every day software project
management issues."
Senior programmer at a major U.S Navy weapon test center.
"The concepts taught in the Software Project Planning and
Management course have been very informative and helpful,
and I have found them to be readily applicable to my
'real-world' programs."
Software Engineer at a major automotive supplier
"In the topics presented in Software Project Planning
and Management course, I learned the importance of following
a defined process when managing a software project. Also,
I learned how to perform schedule, effort, and cost estimates.
This knowledge is directly applicable to my job
tasks as my company strives to improve quality by lowering
cost, decreasing development time, and reducing product defects."
Software Lead, large aircraft manufacturer
"The process documentation [analysis] was ... most revealing.
While [our company] already had a reasonably well documented
process, performing the ... analysis exposed a significant
number of non-value-added or redundant artifacts and
inefficiencies."
Process specialist at a major manufacturing company.
"Anyone else who has taught me about metrics or WBS has bored
me to death. But Dr. Frailey made them both interesting."
