Capability Transfer: Leveraging Licensing as a Business and Learning Strategy | 2008-06-19 | |

It seems that in today's global market, Learning's value proposition, thus, must be three fold: creating sustained, scalable behavior change that "Moves the needle" on the business (increased revenue, decreased costs, shorter sell cycles, etc) while not being a strain on the bottom line, yet flexible enough to reach across the enterprise (and the globe).

Teaching a Service Course in Software Engineering | 2007-10-13 | Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers |
| The development of stand-alone software engineering curricula has spawned the need for a reevaluation of the survey courses designed to introduce software engineering to the non-software engineer (e.g. computer engineers or computer scientists). The Guidelines for Undergraduate Degree Programs in Software Engineering (SE2004) and the Software Engineering Body of Knowledge (SWEBOK) are two widely accepted guidelines for knowledge areas within software engineering. This paper will examine the recommendations in these guidelines and suggest an appropriate subset of course topic areas and depth of coverage for a software engineering service course.
