Eight Years of Delivering Professional Education and Training for Software Engineering at Fraunhofer IESE: An Experience Report

摘要

In this paper, we reflect on our experiences of delivering professional software engineering (SE) education and training over the course of the last eight years. We begin the paper with a summary of current developments in SE education and training, followed by a brief description of the educational framework that has guided our work in this domain. We then move on to describe four case studies of SE education and training delivery together with a set of lessons learnt. We end the paper with a summary of the wider lessons learnt gained from our experiences in the domain - these consider how SE education should be delivered and facilitated -, as well as other considerations such as changes to organizational roles and responsibilities brought about by the introduction of technology-based learning.
