Description
Traditional training programs and universities make you fit in theoretical or technical basics and they obviously set their focus on coding skills, but
the essential skills in the working world are soft skills
. Statistically you will spend about half of your work weak in meetings interacting with people, where coding genius won't help. Soft skills make or break a career and are the bridge between the technical and non-technical world. Did you know that in 94% of all cases people with
stronger soft skills
get promoted rather than people with more years of experience but weaker soft skills? However, learning them on the job is painful and time-consuming trial and error.
Our course teaches necessary soft skills and process know how needed for a career in IT.
No general knowledge
, but
everything specifically tailored to the IT business
.
We don't teach theory, we teach experience
, that you can use straight away. All our content and examples come from real life, from hundreds of interviews with IT experts who have shared their difficulties and their best advice with us. Our philosophy is: It's not about being able to do everything perfectly. It's about not making simple and avoidable mistakes, because these are much more serious. Our videos use a microlearning format and are produced in an entertaining way.
The complete course consists of 9 sub-courses, that cover topics like communication (especially communicating tech to non-technical people), making yourself heard as an expert, collaboration, professional skills, helping and improving others, career progression & self-marketing, dealing with superiors, leadership, business acumen and much more.
This is the first sub-course called "Self-Organization", where you learn to optimize your personal workflows, results, priorities and decisions to be in charge of your tasks and schedule.

Software Engineers
