Compliments of O'Reilly Press

With a change in title, that process could apply to so many things.

It took me a year to convince my colleague where I worked that the software development process and the training development process were exactly the same but used different jargon names for the different stages. He had a PhD in curriculum development and had been hired to create a process for developing internal training. I finally pulled up the documented software development process and with the help of carefully chosen global replacements and minor editing, accomplished his one year project in a single long afternoon. I don't think he ever forgave me.
