What is the Scalable Refactoring Strategy Programs course about?
Technical leaders face mounting pressure to evolve legacy systems while maintaining team velocity and cohesion across time zones. Generic refactoring advice fails at scale, especially when coordination overhead increases due to hybrid work models. Without a structured strategy, initiatives stall, regress, or create new technical debt.
