Welcome to the second STEP update newsletter. The students are now into their 5th week of the course and have finished the following additional modules:

• Automated Testing
• Testing to produce quality code
• Management of test script

Great news on the placement front - ABSA has already agreed to permanently employ two of the current academites when they complete the programme. Special thanks to ABSA for their continued support.

Want to get to know the Compuware students a bit better? To find out more about each of the academites navigate to http://www.compuware.co.za/Academy/Index.htm

You can track the progress of one of the academites through the STEP programme in the STAR's Workplace supplement. The STEP introduction article was printed on 25 February 2004 (article available on the website). We will keep you posted.
