Abstract
Summary form only given. Industrial companies are tasked with creating the software that runs some of the most critical software systems in the world (power grid, chemical plants, GPS systems, etc). Yet, many developers in these companies are not classically trained computer scientists or software engineers.In this talk, I will present our insights and lessons learned while deploying a large, global training program for ABB's software personnel. To date, this program has trained over 4000 personnel on many different software development topics, using a mix of eLearning materials, Web based courses and special topic Webinars.
