Even bad code can function. But if code isn’t clean, it can bring a development organisation to its knees. Every year, countless hours and significant resources are lost because of poorly written code. But it doesn’t have to be that way!

In this three-day Clean Code Workshop you will learn the principles and practices of Clean Code as described in Robert C. Martin’s book: Clean Code: A Handbook of Agile Software Craftsmanship. You will also receive this book as part of the course materials.
