Cebu students attend software dev’t training

Twenty selected IT and Computer Science and Computer Engineering students from partner schools in Cebu attended a oneday training and workshop on agile software development offered by LegalMatch Philippines.

Agile Essentials, an introductory workshop on agile software development, presented a high-level overview of the key principles of agile. Through the one-day workshop with real-life case studies and hands-on exercises, students from partner schools: University of San Carlos, University of San Jose-Recoletos, Asian College of Technology, and University of Cebu had the chance to equip themselves with knowledge on agile software development last March 24.

The one-day training covered agile development processes and methodologies, key individuals and their roles, and activities such as release planning, sprint tracking, conducting retrospective reviews and many more.

“As part of Cebu’s IT community, we believe it is our responsibility to help grow and nurture the city’s IT talent pool,” said LegalMatch Philippines’ general manager Christine Rom. “This activity is the first in a series of training initiatives... We are confident that through these initiatives, we will be able to impart helpful knowledge that will give students a head start in building their own successful tech careers.”
