Clean "Software" Architecture is scheduled in Fort Collins! Open to all software engineers looking to improve their craft.

Drawing on over a half-century of experience in software environments of every imaginable type, Martin tells you what choices to make and why they are critical to your success. As you’ve come to expect from Uncle Bob, this class is packed with direct, no-nonsense solutions for the real challenges you’ll face—the ones that will make or break your projects.

• Learn what software architects need to achieve—and core disciplines and practices for achieving it
• Master essential software design principles for addressing function, component separation, and data management
• See how programming paradigms impose discipline by restricting what developers can do
• Understand what’s critically important and what’s merely a “detail”
• Implement optimal, high-level structures for web, database, thick-client, console, and embedded applications
• Define appropriate boundaries and layers, and organize components and services
• See why designs and architectures go wrong, and how to prevent (or fix) these failures
