SilkRoad focuses on both core software development knowledge and technology skills. In terms of core software development knowledge, we focus on software engineering practices (development processes, project management, configuration management, architectural design and testing techniques) and software design (object-oriented analysis and design). This core knowledge helps us build better software and also help us challenge ourselves with emerging technologies.
