The best way to ensure that improvement efforts stick is to train your software development team on not only the new processes but also the reasons behind them. We provide customized training courses that explain the fundamentals of software engineering best practices, manifesting a company-wide understanding that results in lasting change.

As an SEI-authorized CMMI Transition Partner, we offer the Introduction to CMMI course to help organizations improve their ability to develop and maintain quality products and services. Over three days, we introduce systems and software engineering managers and practitioners, appraisal team members and engineering process group members to the fundamental concepts of the Capability Maturity Model Integration. After attending this course, participants will be able to understand how the CMMI applies to their organization's process improvement program.

To help software project managers understand the practices that translate into successful releases, cognence offers Philippe Kruchten’s Software Project Management with RUP course.  This course compares and contrasts traditional project management with a new breed of techniques and tools that are better suited to software development including iterative and agile methods.

cognence also assists customers in learning cutting edge engineering best practices such as object oriented analysis & design, UML, and ATAM, as well as the use of Rational’s tools like Rational Software Architect, ClearCase, ClearQuest, RequisitePro, and others.
