thoughtbot left me with a much more seasoned team than I had started with, a better architecture, and a much clearer roadmap. Even to this day, the DNA from thoughtbot’s early engagement lives through the company. They really set us up for the success we are today.

Customized learning courses

Your team needs a finishing school, not a bootcamp

You have plenty of online material for developers just getting started, but nothing for growing beyond a junior developer. That's why we developed Upcase in 2013.

Through a combination of presentations, exercises, and one-to-one mentorship, our custom trainings are molded to your team goals and your individual teammate needs.

Course examples

  • Clean code
  • Design for developers
  • Testing
  • Ruby on Rails foundations
  • Building for accessibility

thoughtbot is a best-in-class organization for development and DevOps. They can level up your team and transform your technical culture for the better

What’s included in your Upcase for Teams course?

A custom course typically takes one week to collaborate on the material, and one week to deliver to your team. It includes elements such as:

  • Live lecture sessions that are recorded for your reuse
  • Coding exercises customized for your products
  • 1:1 pairing with thoughtbot developers
  • Recommendations for next steps and additional course material
