No prior technical knowledge is assumed as part of this course, as it is intended to form or improve a foundation for any software leader.
The course starts off by discussing what DevSecOps is and why it is important. It then provides an overview of DevSecOps technologies and principles using a simple-to-follow “Tech like I’m 10” approach. Next, the course covers topics such as value stream management, platform as product, and engineering organization improvement, all driving towards defining Continuous Delivery and explaining why it is so foundational for any organization. The course also focuses on culture, metrics, cybersecurity, and agile contracting.
This course prepares technical program managers for software-intensive jobs and roles. It outlines the fundamentals required in order to successfully transform any software development organization into a digital leader. This course will accelerate your journey as you continue to learn and grow your understanding of modern software delivery and security, as well as the complexities around managing development, security, and operations teams.
