Purpose
This document aims to provide students joining NER’s Software Solutions team with helpful content to learn various aspects of software development, web development, and more. It’s been separated into different key topics with resources to help you learn the basics. You might not need to watch all of these videos (some are long or cover the same topics), but if you’re starting from scratch they should be helpful. Also, 1.5x or 2x speed is your friend.
This document also provides links that may be helpful to those in leadership positions, although anyone interested is welcome to check them out as they discuss skills that are useful to everyone.
