Title
Description
With a surge of over 1.3 million technology sector jobs by 2020, companies will continue to struggle filling these roles because of a widening skills gap. Technology companies survive by their ability to hire and retain fantastic employees. With software engineers that means delivering an environment that offers autonomy, opportunities for learning, and values craft. Technology companies employ people who can learn, who love it, and those inspired to keep doing it – “life-long learners”. But, how do you foster that in emerging developers? Such that they have sufficient foundational knowledge to build a meaningful career, and that they are provided the tools to continue to bridge knowledge gaps in our ever-changing industry. An apprenticeship program helps all your engineers understand your technology platform, culture, and shared vocabulary, so they can meaningfully contribute earlier and better. Learn how to develop and implement a robust apprenticeship program that creates a solid and continuous pipeline of talent that will grow your business. This talk is about learning, how to get started, keep motivated, self-assess, and other useful patterns.
