Trainer : Bachan Anand 

This is what past participants say about Bachan's training:


 Eduardo Martinez, Project Manager and Business Analyst at ELGE Martinez Consulting, LLC

" Mr. Bachan demonstrates that he manages very well the topics and I was impressed the way and the style he used training the audience helping to understand the scrums foundations and the roles and the approach to adopt the Agile methodology.
The training was very interesting. Some of the topics that I enjoyed most was the Scrum Roles Details where it was identified all the traditional Project Manager responsibility aligned within the Agile Methodology. And also, I enjoyed learning about the technique used to Planning, Estimation Sprint and the Scrum Diagram.
Thanks Mr. Bachan for your time and dedication to this training. I think that Agile Practices is something that you should consider as an option if you want to improve your way to deliver software solution.

 

 Grahame Price, Director of Software Development at BuilderMT

 

" Bachan's Scrum Master training was very effective and informative. I learned a lot in a short period of time, due to his intuitive methods and presentation style. He is excellent when dealing with a group of people who have different skill levels and got everyone involved effectively in the group exercises, which were key to learning the team concepts.

I would recommend Bachan as a trainer and facilitator - he knows his subject and is able to transfer that knowledge effectively.

 

 Rose Strubel, Manager at Netcracker

 

" Bachan's course provided a good foundation on how Scrum can be applied to any project in any sector. He gave good guidelines and tools to use to start using Scrum. I would recommend this class to anyone who is interested in Scrum.

Bachan is an excellent presenter and keeps everyone engaged during the entire class.

Data Scientists  analyze large sets of data to make predictions about the future. While most transfer from professional careers in computer science,  some of the best data scientists come straight from academia. If you have an advanced degree in a quantitative area of study, like physics, applied mathematics, or statistics, the transition from academia into the tech sector may be easier than you may think. 

We are bringing a PhD former quantitative researcher and current Talent Leader from Teza Technologies, Olga Myndyuk, to teach you how to transfer your academic data analytic skills to the tech industry. Join us for this intimate workshop where we will review your resumes, teach you how to position your skillset, and show you some of the most applicable jobs for you.

NOTE: 
This is a highly curated session where we will be selecting participants. After you register on Eventbrite, please send your resume to info@sputnikatx.com for review and we will let you know if you've been accepted a week before the event.

Are you a real estate investor who is struggling to find deals in your market?  Are you a fix & flipper who is tired of fix & flopping or fighting weekend warriors for the next deal?  Are you a lazy landlord who loves cash flow but who hates dealing with toilets, tenants, and trash outs?  Are you a new real estate investor who is looking for the best way to put your hard-earned buck to work in the most effective way to get a higher return on your investment and time?


If you answered yes to any of those questions then you might want to check the power of becoming a note investor!

Each Monday night at 7:00 pm CST, Scott Carson (aka the Note Guy) hosts a webinar dedicated solely to helping investors cash in as a note investor.  He's helped thousands of real estate investors to make money in the "sexy side of real estate" by buying notes.

Every Monday night, Scott discusses a different topic on note investing.  Ranging from finding deals, raising capital, exit strategies, due diligence, marketing, and motivation, he provides real-world nuggets to help you take your real estate business to the next level.

Due to popular demand, our free introductory class is now WEEKLY.

Maybe you’ve seen a few improv shows and thought, “I could do that.” (And you’re right!) And sure, it looks like it might be fun. But signing up for a class seems like a pretty big commitment. What if you hand the nice lady your check and then find out you really don’t like it? If only there were some way you could test-drive these ColdTowne Conservatory classes that all the kids are talking about.

Well, you can! At 7pm on the first and third Mondays of every month, ColdTowne fires up Improv 101, a FREE class that lets you see what all the hoorawing is about . . . without having to pay us a dime. Taught by members of the ColdTowne Conservatory faculty, Improv 101 is a pretty good sampler of what you’ll encounter in your first Level One class.

That means a warmup, some games, some discussion of the basic principles of improv, and — yes — some stage time! At ColdTowne we believe that best way to learn improv is to do improv, so we get you up and playing right from the start. Not only does this make for better improv . . . it’s more fun. And fun is the operating principle here, people.

So come check it out. It’s fun and FREE. How can you go wrong?

Free Improv 101 class: 7pm EVERY MONDAY at ColdTowne Theater

Enjoy the tones and vibrations of the quartz bowls in the beautiful, spacious Unity room at The One Center Austin. The One Center Austin will be offering monthly Sound Baths the fourth Monday of each month beginning April 23rd at 7:00 pm. 

Imagine being completely immersed within soothing, deeply nourishing, healing and empowering sound vibrations resonating from 7 quartz crystal singing bowls. Find out why more & more people are discovering the amazing power of sound for healing, relaxation and spiritual development.
-- Many use bowls as a backdrop for meditation/prayer.
-- Some come and ‘sit’ with a question or concern.
-- Some say bowls reduce pain and help balance emotional issues such as depression, fatigue, anger, loneliness, and fear.
-- Others come to relax, enjoy, and release stress.


But no matter your personal purpose, a bowl session provides a feeling of deep relaxation and peace. The Singing Bowl Lady offers a sonic tapestry for you to weave your own unique experience. So come join us and take time to relax into the edgeless energy of You. Be Bowled.

Please bring your own yoga mat or blanket with pillow! The Unity room is carpeted and comfortable!
