Agile workshops


Intro to Agile
Agile isn't just an odd new vocabulary — it's a way to keep your team flexible enough to adapt to shifting needs. Our full-day Agile training will show you just how it works by walking you through a pretend project, so you can experience all the Agile methodologies in action and practice new skills for responding to change.


Agile Lego Game
If you prefer to tackle team-building while learning, our full or half-day Agile Lego Game workshops will show you how to put Agile techniques into practice on a rather fun pretend project — building a product out of Legos. Our facilitators will play the role of customer, giving you requirements and showing you the real-life benefits of Agile.
Culture workshop


Better Career Development
Career development doesn't depend on fancy software or reams of forms. This half-day workshop will introduce you to The Sticky Note Game, a tool we developed to quickly collect business goals and personal opportunities into one career plan that takes care of the whole employee.
Development workshops


Testing for Rails
Our own Noel Rappin wrote the book on testing for Rails — actually a few of them, the latest of which is Rails 5 Test Prescriptions. He'll share all that he knows about writing high-value tests to create stronger code that makes it easier, and cheaper, to add new features.


Maintaining Rails in a Large Codebase
Rails is an excellent framework — but it can very quickly get out of hand once your business logic gets complex. We'll walk you through the best practices for structuring larger codebases in Rails, so you can keep all the things that are great about the framework while still growing your business.


Managing Javascript in Rails with Webpacker
Javascript brings the interactivity users demand, but it also brings a whole host of issues to Rails. In this hands-on workshop, Master Space and Time with JavaScript author Noel Rappin will show you how to use Webpacker to keep your Javascript under control so you can add new features to your Rails applications.


Taking Money in Rails
One of Noel Rappin's many books on Rails is literally called Take My Money: Accepting Payments on the Web, and he'll help you do exactly that in this workshop. Together, you'll walk through using the Stripe API to handle credit card payments, as well as the non-technical changes you'll need to make to keep your team and your customers happy.


Refactoring Legacy Code
Legacy code happens to everyone, eventually. This workshop will help you make sense of the legacy code you have while also helping you prevent legacy code from happening in the future. You'll work with a real sample of legacy code, learning how to refactor it so you can make improvements,


Modernize Your Javascript Spaghetti Code
We've all stared down a screen of jQuery spaghetti — few things are more daunting, or more frustrating. This workshop will give you the tools to untangle that nonsense. You'll work directly with sample client code, moving it a little bit at a time so you can add new features, then translate it completely to a new framework.
