First Aid Courses for the ASSIST team

2 min read

ASSIST Software is proud to have organized a first aid course at the end of July. Due to high demand, the participants were split into two groups so that each participant could focus on their tasks, ask questions and interact in a manner that ensured the understanding of each technique.;

The first group met on the 24th of July. They learned how to help somebody that is facing a health emergency the course being taught by a representative from the Red Cross. The specialist, Andrei Tailup, demonstrated first aid maneuvers and spoke about the importance of obtaining such knowledge.;

The training session took five hours so the participants could take their time practicing with the CPR manikins and first aid kits brought specially for the session. Thus, the course was not just theoretical; the practical aspect of it was even more important and helped clarify the notions learned, aiding all those present to remember the exact processes step by step.   

The emergency situations covered by the trainer ranged from low-risk ones like minor burns to life-threatening ones like massive blood loss or cardiac arrest. Thus, our colleagues now know how to react correctly in a crisis and how to confidently help a victim, without fear of causing more harm than good.   

This training course is not the first one ASSIST has organized at its headquarters and we can certainly say that it will not be the last. Another group of our teammates will take part in a similar course in September 2021.  

Thanks to the Red Cross First Aid course, our team reached another milestone in its personal development roadmap, proving once again that here at ASSIST, we put others first and we wish to actively be able to help others if the situation arises.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is ASSIST Software's development process?  

The Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) we employ defines the following stages for a software project. Our SDLC phases include planning, requirement gathering, product design, development, testing, deployment, and maintenance.

2. What software development methodology does ASSIST Software use?  

ASSIST Software primarily leverages Agile principles for flexibility and adaptability. This means we break down projects into smaller, manageable sprints, allowing continuous feedback and iteration throughout the development cycle. We also incorporate elements from other methodologies to increase efficiency as needed. For example, we use Scrum for project roles and collaboration, and Kanban boards to see workflow and manage tasks. As per the Waterfall approach, we emphasize precise planning and documentation during the initial stages.

3. I'm considering a custom application. Should I focus on a desktop, mobile or web app?  

We can offer software consultancy services to determine the type of software you need based on your specific requirements. Please explore what type of app development would suit your custom build product.   

  • A web application runs on a web browser and is accessible from any device with an internet connection. (e.g., online store, social media platform)   
  • Mobile app developers design applications mainly for smartphones and tablets, such as games and productivity tools. However, they can be extended to other devices, such as smartwatches.    
  • Desktop applications are installed directly on a computer (e.g., photo editing software, word processors).   
  • Enterprise software manages complex business functions within an organization (e.g., Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)).

4. My software product is complex. Are you familiar with the Scaled Agile methodology?

We have been in the software engineering industry for 30 years. During this time, we have worked on bespoke software that needed creative thinking, innovation, and customized solutions. 

Scaled Agile refers to frameworks and practices that help large organizations adopt Agile methodologies. Traditional Agile is designed for small, self-organizing teams. Scaled Agile addresses the challenges of implementing Agile across multiple teams working on complex projects.  

SAFe provides a structured approach for aligning teams, coordinating work, and delivering value at scale. It focuses on collaboration, communication, and continuous delivery for optimal custom software development services. 

5. How do I choose the best collaboration model with ASSIST Software?  

We offer flexible models. Think about your project and see which models would be right for you.   

  • Dedicated Team: Ideal for complex, long-term projects requiring high continuity and collaboration.   
  • Team Augmentation: Perfect for short-term projects or existing teams needing additional expertise.   
  • Project-Based Model: Best for well-defined projects with clear deliverables and a fixed budget.
