About the Author

Gerry Byrne and David Wilson are Senior Technical Trainers for a Forbes 100 company. They work to upskill and reskill software engineers who develop business-critical software applications. They also help refine the programming skills of returners to the workforce and introduce new graduates to the application of software development within the commercial environment.

Their subject expertise has been developed over multi-decade careers as teachers, lecturers, and technical trainers in a corporate technology environment. They have delivered a range of courses across computer languages and frameworks and understand how to teach skills and impart knowledge to a range of learners. They have taught software engineers in the use of modern technologies and frameworks such as C#, Java, Spring, Android, JavaScript, Node, HTML, CSS, Bootstrap, React, Python, and Test-Driven Development, not to mention legacy technologies such as COBOL and JCL.

Gerry and David have mastered how to teach difficult concepts in a simple way that makes learning accessible and enjoyable. Their delivery and content follow the same philosophy of keeping it simple, while making the instructions detailed and applying concepts to real-world scenarios. They are passionate about software development and believe we can all learn to write code if we are patient, grasp the basic coding concepts, get plenty of hands-on coding, and most of all, persevere through ‘thick and thin.’
