What is Eric's interest in education as it pertains to the software
industry?
Education has
always appealed to him, as a natural communicator with the
successful experience of bringing different groups of people
together towards common goals. The games industry, for all of its
technological advances and exciting intellectual properties, has
generally struggled to establish and encourage mass adoption of true
international development standards for operational infrastructure
and production methodologies. Sharing and implementing these
necessary standards is one of Eric’s specialties. It drives his
passion for his product development craft, and it involves an
in-depth education that is not handed out as part of an employee
handbook. A formal instructional setting allows Eric to reach a
greater audience, better preparing students, as well as new and
established professionals alike, through earlier adoption of these
standards. This effort drives home a more thorough appreciation and
understanding of the in-depth collaboration that binds all product
development disciplines together, from well before concept and long
after completion.
