Feed Description: Marty Andrews talks about the day to day issues he faces as an agile coach on large enterprise applications in Australia.
Cogent Consulting is trying a new idea next year called Easy Access Training. The idea is simple. Training courses often run over multiple weekdays, and can be quite expensive. That can make them inaccessible to people who either can't get the time off work, or don't have budget support from their boss to pay for it. So Cogent is offering one day courses on a weekend, and the seats are auctioned off, so it is possible to get one reasonably cheap.
Steve Hayes is running the first course in late January, and I'm going to to try and come along as well. Check out the EAT site to see the latest bids if you're interested.
